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
- 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.
- (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.
