Pronunciation

Verb

ēvānēscō (present infinitive ēvānēscere, perfect active ēvānuī); third conjugation, no passive, no supine stem

  1. to vanish, disappear, pass away
    • 29 BCE – 19 BCE, Virgil, Aeneid 4.276–278:
      Tālī Cyllēnius ōre locūtus
      mortālis vīsus mediō sermōne relīquit,
      et procul in tenuem ex oculīs ēvānuit auram.
      Having uttered such from his lips, the Cyllenian – in the midst of speaking – abandoned mortal visibility, and from before the eyes vanished into thin air.
      (Mercury had been born on Mount Cyllene; his divine apparition appears suddenly, rebukes Aeneas, and disappears abruptly.)
  2. to fade away, or die out
  3. to lapse
