gratulor
Ido
Verb
gratulor
- future infinitive of gratular
Latin
Etymology
Disputed. Possible solutions are:
- From *grātulus, diminutive of grātus, + -ō. Confer grātor.
- For *grātitulor, from grātēs (“thanks”) + -tulor, the latter from the root of tollō. Confer vītulor.
Both derivations lead ultimately to the same root, Proto-Indo-European *gʷerH- (“to praise”).

- (Classical Latin) IPA(key): [ˈɡraː.tʊ.ɫɔr]
