[edit]Etymology
[edit]From ante- + eō. Forms in antid- are part of the same analogy as redeō, antideā, to avoid hiatus.
Pronunciation
[edit]- (Classical Latin) IPA(key): /ˈan.te.oː/, [ˈän̪t̪eoː]
- Note: the double -ee- in this word is not pronounced but is purely orthographic, in line with the "full" spelling of prepositional/prefixal elements. Not only do Latin short vowels followed by other vowels regularly elide on the phonetic level, but stem-final short vowels are already regularly elided on the morphophonological level, i.e. during word derivation.
- (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): /an.teˈe.o/, [än̪t̪eˈɛːo]
Verb
[edit]anteeō (present infinitive anteīre, perfect active anteiī or anteīvī, supine anteitum); irregular conjugation, irregular
- to go before, precede (walk on ahead)
- to surpass
- Synonyms: excellō, antecēdō, praeēmineō, trānseō
- to anticipate
