Etymology

From Proto-Indo-European *h₃e-h₃ód-e ~ h₃e-h₃d-ḗr, reduplicated perfect from the root *h₃ed- (to hate; to start hating?).

Pronunciation

Verb

ōdī (present infinitive ōdisse, future participle ōsūrus); fourth conjugation, perfect forms have present meaning, no supine stem except in the future active participle

  1. to have an aversion towards, to hate, dislike
    • 23 BCE – 13 BCE, Horace, Odes 1.38.1–2:
      Persicōs ōdī, puer, apparātūs,
      displicent nexae philyrā corōnae.
      • Translation by A.Z. Foreman
        My boy: I hate the filigree of Persia.
        Linden-sewn garlands chafe me with their glamor.
    • 405 CE, Jerome, Vulgate Exodus.20.5:
      Nōn adōrābis ea, neque colēs: ego sum Dominus Deus tuus fortis, zēlōtēs, vīsitāns inīquitātem patrum in fīliōs, in tertiam et quārtam generātiōnem eōrum quī ōdērunt mē.
      Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me.
  2. (with infinitive) to feel reluctant to, to hate to, to be loath to
    • 23 BCE – 13 BCE, Horace, Odes 2.16:
      Laetus in praesēns animus quod ultrā est
      ōderit cūrāre
      And let the mind that's happy in the moment
      'Bout that which lies before be loath to worry

Usage notes

Irregular for historical reasons as well as to avoid near-homophony (especially for non-urban speakers) with forms of audeō and audiō:

  • Used to express a stative meaning, inheriting the Proto-Indo-European usage. As a result, no usual aspectual distinction (imperfect-perfect) is possible.
  • The perfect tense expresses a present stative meaning. The pluperfect expresses a past stative meaning.
  • Perōsus and exōsus are used in place of present active participles; ōsus is archaic in this function.
  • To express the passive meaning, various expressions with odium are mainly used.

The form odīvī, classically a solecism, is attested already by the end of the Republic in the past aoristic function; in Late Latin, the imperfect odiō becomes common (see it for details), supplementing ōdī in the present, while perōsus and exōsus acquire the passive meaning.
