pleo

== Latin == === Etymology === Exists only as a bound morpheme in prefixed verbs, where it continues Proto-Italic *plēō, perhaps—according to De Vaan—from a root aorist *pléh₁-t, from Proto-Indo-European *pleh₁- (“to fill”). The perfect passive participle plētus may have replaced earlier *plātus, from *pl̥h₁tós. However, the pre-form of the participle is alternatively reconstructed as *pleh₁tós. For cognates, compare Russian -по́лнить (-pólnitʹ), a cognate with the same meaning that likewise does not occur uncompounded. === Verb === pleō (present infinitive plēre, perfect active plēvī, supine plētum); second conjugation Combining form used to form prefixed verbs with the approximate meaning "to fill". For quotations using this term, see Citations:pleo. ==== Conjugation ==== Only one form, plendī (CIL 2.6278.38), is attested in Classical Latin without a prefix outside of grammarians. (Festus p.230M) also cites plentur without attribution. ==== Derived terms ==== ==== Related terms ==== === References === “pleō” in the Thesaurus Linguae Latinae (TLL Open Access), Berlin (formerly Leipzig): De Gruyter (formerly Teubner), 1900–present “pleō” on page 1530 of the Oxford Latin Dictionary (2nd ed., 2012) “pleo”, in Charlton T.
