InterlinguaEdit

AdjectiveEdit

ver

1. true

LatinEdit

EtymologyEdit

From Proto-Italic *wezor (stem *wezn-), from Proto-Indo-European *wésr̥ ‎(“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.

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 вєсна ‎(vesna).

PronunciationEdit

• IPA^(key): /weːr/

NounEdit

vēr n ‎(genitive vēris); third declension

1. spring (season)

InflectionEdit

Third declension neuter.
