  • (Ecclesiastical) IPA: /ˈa.ve/, [ˈäːve]
  • Note: around the 1st c. a.D., the current pronunciation remained the etymological IPA: /ha.vĕ/, with the long-vowel unaspirated form possible as a literary affectation, or as a poetic license.

Interjection

avē̆

  1. hail, hello, greetings! (a formal expression of greeting)
    • Avē̆ atque valē!
      • Hail and farewell! (esp. before a long departure and as a last good-bye to the dead).
    • Avē̆ imperātor, moritūrī tē salūtant!
      • Hail, commander, the ones going to their deaths salute you!
    • Synonym: (h)avētō

Usage notes

  • Outside of grammarians, the plural (h)avēte is attested only once in Apuleius, who is known for affecting archaisms. This suggests that this greeting didn't usually inflect for number, reflecting its originally being an interjection and not a verbal form; nevertheless, it was eventually widely interpreted as the latter.
  • The other verbal forms cited by grammarians are the future imperative avētō tū, ille (“greetings to you, him”) etc., and the infinitive in the circumlocution avēre tē volō (after the same use with valēre and the very rare salvēre).
