Etymology[edit]
From Ancient Greek φῖ (phî, “the letter Φ”).
Pronunciation[edit]
Noun[edit]
fio (accusative singular fion, plural fioj, accusative plural fiojn)
Italian[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From Old French fieu (“fief”), from Frankish *fehu, from Proto-Germanic *fehu, from Proto-Indo-European *peḱu- (“livestock”).
Noun[edit]
fio m (plural fii)
Latin[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From Proto-Italic *fuiō, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bʰuH- (“to grow, become, come into being, appear”). Compare with fuī, originally the perfect of this verb but now attached to sum (“to be”); and constructions with -bō, -bam (e.g. amābō, placēbō, nocēbō, monēbam, audiēbam).
The past participle is that of the unrelated verb faciō (“I make, do”). In Latin faciō and fīō were treated as the active and passive equivalents of each other, leading to suppletion.
Pronunciation[edit]
Verb[edit]
fīō (present infinitive fierī, perfect active factus sum); irregular conjugation, semi-deponent
- (copulative) I become, am made
- Vos oramus ut discipuli acerrimi fiatis.
- We are begging you so that you may become very keen students.
- Vos oramus ut discipuli acerrimi fiatis.
- I happen
- I take place
Inflection[edit]
While it does have a fourth conjugation pattern when conjugated, this verb has an irregular infinitive (fīerī), and is therefore third conjugation.
