desejar
Portuguese edit
Etymology edit
From Old Galician-Portuguese desejar; from the noun desejo; cf. Latin dēsīderō, dēsīderāre (“long for, desire, feel the want of, miss, regret”). Possibly corresponds to a Vulgar Latin verb *dēsidiāre, itself perhaps a crossing between Latin dēsīderāre and invidiāre, from invidia. Compare Spanish desear, Catalan desitjar.
Pronunciation edit
