Proto-Italic[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From *ke (“here”) + *dō (“give”, imperative).
Verb[edit]
*kedō first-singular present indicative[1]
- (imperative) give here!
Conjugation[edit]
In Latin, this occurs only as a fossilised expression, and has only imperative forms. Presumably, this reflects the older Proto-Italic situation as well, although it is conceivable that the verb had a full conjugation at some point.
- Singular: *kedō
- Plural: *kedate
