cide means death so sui probably means self or self inflicted.

It is self, from the Latin. The expression sui generis means self made, for example. A court acts sua sponte when it does so on its own motion.

"Sui" comes from the latin word for "self". The suffix "cide" has to do will killing. The combination means to kill oneself.

Suicide (from Latin sui caedere, to kill oneself) therefore sui means oneself (not herself or himself , it is without gender)

self
Logic:
Genocide means killing a group of a certain race, and suicide means killing yourself. Therefore cide must mean "killing." If cide means killing, sui must mean self.
