According to one analysis, found in Leumann 1977, the term is a "decasuative" formation built on the genitive singular case-form avī. De Vaan says it is "formed after marītus", and so apparently views the ending as analogical. === Pronunciation === (Classical Latin) IPA(key): [aˈwiː.tʊs] (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): [aˈviː.tus] === Adjective === avītus (feminine avīta, neuter avītum); first/second-declension adjective (relational) grandfatherly ancestral Synonyms: paternus, maiorum ==== Declension ==== First/second-declension adjective. ==== Related terms ==== avus ==== Descendants ==== Italian: avito Portuguese: avito === References === === Further reading === “avitus”, in Charlton T.
