repede¹

  • /ˈre.pe.de/

Rhymes with -epede, -ede

Where it comes from

Inherited from Latin rapidus and Latin rapidē.

The -e declension derives from the adverb, the two having been conflated at some point. The rarely used western Transylvanian variant rapăd preserves the adjectival declension. Thus there must have been two distinct forms for the adjective and adverb originally; rapăd and *rapede respectively.

Doublet of rapid.
