paene

  1. quasi
pae | nĕ
  • (pronuncia classica) IPA: /ˈpae̯.ne/
  • (pronuncia ecclesiastica) IPA: /ˈpe.ne/

secondo il Dictionnaire étymologique Latin di Michel Bréal e Anatole Bailly è da ritenersi correlato a penitus, "profondamente, a fondo"; probabilmente utilizzato con simile significato nel latino arcaico (un'eco di tale utilizzo si ritrova ancora in Plauto), con successivo slittamento di significato nel latino classico
