Latin

語源

From Proto-Italic *wezor (stem *wezn-), from Proto-Indo-European *wósr̥ (“spring”). The original Italic form gave *veror, genitive *vēnis, with -s- lost before -n- with lengthening of the preceding vowel, as is usual in Latin. The -n- of the genitive stem was then replaced by the -r- of the nominative, and the genitive stem was then extended back to the nominative.^[1]

Cognate with Ancient Greek ἔαρ (éar), Old Norse vár, Lithuanian vasara, Sanskrit वसर् (vasar, “morning”) and वसन्त (vasantá, “spring”), Persian بهار‎ (bahâr, “spring”), Old Armenian գարուն (garun), and Russian весна́ (vesná).

   • c. 84 BCE – 54 BCE, Catullus, Carmina 46:

     Iam vēr ēgelidōs refert tepōrēs,
     iam caelī furor aequinoctiālis
     iūcundīs Zephyrī silēscit aurīs.
     Linquantur Phrygiī, Catulle, campī
     Nīcaeaeque ager ūber aestuōsae:
     ad clārās Asiae volēmus urbēs.
     Iam mēns praetrepidāns avet vagārī,
     iam laetī studiō pedēs vigēscunt.
     Ō dulcēs comitum valēte coetūs,
     longē quōs simul ā domō profectōs
     dīversae variae viae reportant.

     • Translation by Wikisource

       Now spring brings back the thawed-out warmth,
       now the raging of the equinoctial sky
       subsides with the sweet breezes of Zephyr.
       Let the Phrygian plains be left behind, Catullus,
       and the rich land of sweltering Nicaea:
       let us fly away to the famed cities of Asia.
       Now my fluttering soul yearns to wander;
       now my joyful feet come alive with eagerness.
       Farewell, dear bands of fellow travellers,
       whom, having left home at the same time,
       split paths carry home by different routes.

   • c. 4th century, Tiberianus, Pervigilium Veneris 2:

     Vēr novum, vēr iam canōrum, vēre nātus orbis est.

     The spring is new, the spring is now melodious, in the spring was the world created.
