Pronunciat com a (IPA)

[ˈpɫeːps]

From Old Latin plēbēs, from Proto-Italic *plēðwēs, from Proto-Indo-European *pl̥h₁dʰwḗh₁s ~ *pl̥h₁dʰuh₁és (whence Ancient Greek πληθῡ́ς (plēthū́s, “crowd”)), from the root *pleh₁- (“fill”), whence pleō. Cognate with Oscan 𐌐𐌋𐌝𐌚𐌓𐌉𐌊𐌔 (plífriks, “plebeian”, nom. sg.), perhaps derived from Proto-Italic *plēðros (adjective). See also Latin populus and the Greek-origin borrowing plēthōra.
