AdjectiveEdit

ver

  1. true

LatinEdit

EtymologyEdit

From Proto-Italic *wezor (stem *wezn-), from Proto-Indo-European *wósr̥ (“spring”). The original Italic form gave *veror, genitive *vēnis, with -s- lost before -r- with lengthening of the preceding vowel, as is usual in Latin. The -n- of the genitive stem was then replaced by the -r- of the nominative, and the genitive stem was then extended back to the nominative.[1]

Cognate with Ancient Greek ἔαρ (éar), Old Norse vár, Lithuanian vasara, Sanskrit वसर् (vasar, “morning”) and वसन्त (vasantá, “spring”), Persian بهار‏ (bahâr, “spring”), Old Armenian գարուն (garun), and Old Church Slavonic весна (vesna).

PronunciationEdit

NounEdit

vēr n (genitive vēris); third declension

  1. spring (season)

InflectionEdit

Third declension neuter.
