/fa.vɔ.ʁi/

From Middle French favori, favorit (16th c.), from Italian favorito, past participle of favorire (“to favour”). The form in -it was borrowed directly from the Italian participle, while that in -i (feminine accordingly favorie) is in line with the Middle French verb favorir (now replaced with favoriser). Inconsistent standardization led to the modern hybrid forms (cf. also absous, andalou, coi, esquimau).
