Adverb

emo

  1. maybe

Latin

Etymology

From Proto-Italic *emō, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁em- (to take, distribute), with excrescent p in ēmptum.

Cognate with Lithuanian im̃ti, Old Church Slavonic имѫ (imǫ) and possibly Old Armenian իմանամ (imanam). Possibly related to Proto-Indo-European *nem- (to take or give one's due), with its descendants English nim, Danish nemme, Dutch nemen, German nehmen, West Frisian nimme, Ancient Greek νέμω (némō).

Pronunciation

Verb

emō (present infinitive emere, perfect active ēmī, supine ēmptum); third conjugation

  1. (transitive) to buy, purchase
    Synonyms: comparō, sūmō, coëmō
    Antonyms: vēndō, addīcō, dēferō
    Quantīs haec pōma ēmistī?
    How much have you paid for these fruits?
    • 405 CE, Jerome, Vulgate Ioannes.4.8:
      discipuli enim eius abierant in civitatem ut cibos emerent
      so his disciples had gone away unto the city to buy food
  2. (figuratively) to acquire, procure
    Synonyms: acquīrō, adipīscor, cōnsequor, lucror, parō, pariō, impetrō, mereō, sūmō, potior, ūsūrpō, comparō, apīscor, obtineō, conciliō, nancīscor, colligō, alliciō
    Antonym: āmittō

Conjugation

1At least one use of the Old Latin "sigmatic future" and "sigmatic aorist" tenses is attested, which are used by Old Latin writers; most notably Plautus and Terence. The sigmatic future is generally ascribed a future or future perfect meaning, while the sigmatic aorist expresses a possible desire ("might want to").
