Etymology

Inherited from Latin febris, febrem, either through a Vulgar Latin root *februm, after declension change, or by back-formation from the plural of an original form *fiore (or *fiure) > fiori. Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *dʰegʷʰris, an extension of the root *dʰegʷʰ- (to burn, warm).
