fatuus

出典:『Wiktionary』 (2025/12/17 15:19 UTC )


語源

From Proto-Italic *fātus, of uncertain origin. Maybe from dialectal Proto-Indo-European *at-. (See also battuō.) More likely, a derivative of *eh₂- (to speak), particularly an abstract noun *h₂-tu- (speech); thereby related to for.

According to one hypothesis, Fatuus was an alternative name of the god Faunus, who predicted the future.
