語源

By surface analysis, duum (“of two”) +‎ vir (“man”). The term was probably rebracketed from an earlier genitival syntagma, e.g., duum virum officium/honōs (“the office of duumvirs” → “duumvirs”). Compare duovir and triumvir.

発音

• (Classical Latin) IPA: [duˈʊn.wɪr]
• Note: As this word is univerbated from duum vir, it contains a "final m" phoneme. The pronunciation of this final m before consonantal v in Classical Latin is thought to have been that of the letter n. See quamvīs for more.
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA: [duˈum.vir]
