ravis
Esperanto
Latin
Etymology 1
From Proto-Italic *rawos, of uncertain further origin.[1] Proposed derivations include:
- From Proto-Indo-European *h₃rew- (“to shout, to roar”). Cognates include Latin rūmor (“noise”), Latvian rukt (“to shout”), Proto-Slavic *řuti (“to roar”), Sanskrit रव (rava, “roaring, howling”), Avestan 𐬎𐬭𐬎𐬎𐬀𐬙𐬋 (uruuatō, “roaring”), Ancient Greek ὠρύομαι (ōrúomai, “to howl, roar”). This derivation is preferred by de Vaan, due to connecting more cleanly to cognates outside of Italic, as well as yielding a more satisfying explanation for the -a- vowel.[2]
- From Proto-Indo-European *rÀs- (“to shout, speak”), a root common to Lithuanian rieju (“to scream”), Latvian riet (“to bark”), Russian ра́ять (rájatʹ, “to sound”) and maybe Old English reord (“voice”).
- From Proto-Indo-European *rey- (“to shout; bellow; yell; bark”). See also Old English rarian (“to roar”).
Pronunciation
- (Classical) IPA(key): /ˈraː.u̯is/, [ˈräːu̯ɪs̠]
- (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): /ˈra.vis/, [ˈräːvis]
