Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an examination of the etymology of the Latin verb "dare" (to give, to put) with a specific focus on the verb's conjugation in compound forms. The author argues that the verb exhibits an unusual pattern in its conjugation when found within compound words and seeks to explain this anomaly by tracing the root of "dare" back to the Proto-Indo-European language family. The author demonstrates that "dare" developed from the Proto-Indo-European root "da," which had two distinct but related meanings: "to give" and "to put." In the Latin language, these two meanings became conflated, resulting in the irregular conjugation of "dare." The author's meticulous examination of this etymological puzzle enriches our understanding of the evolution of the Latin language and provides valuable insights into the broader development of the Indo-European language family.
