The suffix “tion” (also Latin), has several meanings, but here is being used to mean (depending on the situation) “the act of doing something”, “the state of being something”, or “the effect of something”.
Should there be an "it" between "here' and " is"?
Thanks!
@tanguatlay,
The
here refers directly to the the subject in the first phrase,
The suffix "tion". An "it" between "here" and "is" is
optional — the "it" is understood and not required.
@tanguatlay,
In this case it is not necessary. Because it is in a dependent clause the subject is implied.

You could put the "it" in there, but most decent writers would not.
