suffio

== Latin == === Alternative forms === subfiō === Etymology === By surface analysis, sub- (“under, within”) +‎ *fiō. The latter component may derive from Proto-Indo-European *dʰewh₂- (“to smoke”), whence also fūmus (“smoke, steam”) and fūlīgō (“soot”). It is perhaps possible that a yé-present of the shape *dʰuh₂-yé-ti would have yielded Proto-Italic *fūjō, whence *fījō due to the pius-Law. Alternatively, a development of *dʰuh₂-yé-ti to Proto-Italic *dʰwījō, whence *fiō has been suggested. === Pronunciation === (Classical Latin) IPA(key): [ˈsʊf.fi.oː] (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): [ˈsuf.fi.o] === Verb === suffiō (present infinitive suffīre, perfect active suffīvī or suffiī, supine suffītum); fourth conjugation to fumigate, perfume, scent ==== Conjugation ==== ==== Derived terms ==== === References === “suffio”, in Charlton T.
