Etymology

From habeō +‎ -itō (frequentative suffix). Clifford Weber notes that the underived habeō occasionally conveyed the same sense of residing or dwelling in pre-Classical Latin where later usage normally has habitō. The frequentative usually implies habit or frequent repetition, which is natural given the meaning of the word.
