Translations
Etymology
Perhaps inherited from Proto-Italic *amāō, from Proto-Indo-European *h₃emh₃- (“to take hold of”). Schrijver alternatively proposes that the term reflects an *ē-stative formed to a root present, adducing as evidence amor (“love”). Formations in -or are otherwise rare beside ā-verbs, but are common beside second conjugation stative verbs.
