De Vaan suggests that this term was built on a root aorist of *ǵenh₁-. Alternatively, the term may derive from a thematic root present of the same root, perhaps whence also Sanskrit जनति (janati, “to beget, to produce, etc.”). Cognate with Latin gignō, Ancient Greek γείνομαι (geínomai, “to beget, to bring into being, (passively) to be born”), Ancient Greek γονή (gonḗ, “offspring, seed, act of generation”), Sanskrit जना (janā, “birth, origin”), and other multivarious formations in many languages. === Pronunciation === (Classical Latin) IPA(key): [ˈɡɛ.noː] (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): [ˈd͡ʒɛː.no] === Verb === genō (present infinitive genere, perfect active genuī, supine genitum); third conjugation (Old Latin) to bring forth as a fruit of oneself: to bear, to beget, to engender, to give birth to Synonyms: prōcreō, gignō, prōdō, ēnītor, cōnītor, pariō, ēdō, suscipiō, efficiō Antonym: necō (by said means): to cause, to produce, to yield (in the passive voice): to be born, to be begotten, to be engendered, to be produced ==== Usage notes ==== Genō, though used in Old Latin, had been largely supplanted by the form gignō by the Classical period. Thereafter, usage of genō was largely (though not exclusively) confined to poetic and to legal contexts, especially as pertained to laws of probate and inheritance. ==== Conjugation ==== ==== Derived terms ==== genitor genetrīx / genitrīx genitus genetīvus / genitīvus ==== Related terms ==== genus gēns gignō gnātus, nātus === References === “geno”, in Charlton T.
