pathe
- Misspelling of pave.
Usage notes edit
This misspelling derives from a mishearing of pave as "pathe" in association with path, in the same way bathe is associated with bath. This is an easy mistake in accents where /v/ and /ð/ are merged, or whose speakers only weakly distinguish the sounds in context.
