subsido

Latin

Etymology

From sub- +‎ sīdō.

Pronunciation

Verb

subsīdō (present infinitive subsīdere, perfect active subsēdī, supine subsessum); third conjugation

  1. to crouch, squat, sit down, set down, sink
    • 8 CE, Ovid, Fasti 2.457:
      iam levis oblīqua subsēdit Aquārius urna
      Aquarius crouches down, now lightened [of his burden], his water-jar tilted [emptied].
      Now unburdened, his water-jar emptied, Aquarius sets.
      (A skillful poet's word-play: Ovid's use of subsēdit can be understood as the mythological figure’s crouching stance as he pours out his water-jar, or the setting of the constellation beneath the horizon. See Aquarius (constellation).)
  2. to settle, subside
    Synonyms: habitō, obsideō, possideō, resideō, iaceō, cōnsīdō, colō, incolō, stabulō, vīvō, versō
  3. to crouch down on the watch, lie in wait, lie in ambush
  4. to run aground
