Latin

Etymology

Uncertain. Ultimately from the root Proto-Indo-European *h₁eǵ- (to say).[1] Nussbaum considers the term to be a sā-present. Such terms were developed ultimately from a Proto-Indo-European present formed from the suffix *-seti, which was then converted into a noun (presumably via the suffixation of *-éh₂), followed by the addition of a denominative verb suffix. The original s-present is attested in Proto-Tocharian *āks-.[2][3]

Compare Latin aiō (I say), adagium (proverb), Ancient Greek ἠμί (ēmí, to say), Old Armenian ասեմ (asem, to say).[4]

Pronunciation

Verb

axō (present infinitive axāre, perfect active axāvī, supine axātum); first conjugation
