patir

See also: pâtir

Catalan

Etymology

Ultimately from Latin patī. Attested in the writings of Ramon Llull. Coromines tentatively proposes that it was inherited (if so, via Vulgar Latin *patīre), considering its relatively "popular" character. This, however, would be at odds with the unlenited /-t-/.

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): (Central, Balearic) [pəˈti]
• IPA^(key): (Valencian) [paˈtiɾ]
