Latin iaciō

Latin reiciō

From re- + iaciō (“throw, hurl”).

Pronunciation

re͡iciō:
- (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): [ˈrɛi̯.ki.oː]
- (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): [ˈrɛi̯.t͡ʃi.o]
reiciō:
- (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): [rɛjˈjɪ.ki.oː]
- (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): [reˈjiː.t͡ʃi.o]
Note: both syllabifications occur when allowed by the meter; the shorter form probably original, the longer an analogical restoration, as with other compounds of iaciō.^[1]
