Étymologie (Anglais)

Etymology tree
Proto-Indo-European *dʰeh₁(y)-
Latin fellō
Proto-Indo-European *-tisder.
Proto-Italic *-tjō
Latin -tiō
Latin fellātiōlbor.
English fellatio
Learned borrowing from Latin fellātiō, from fellātus, perfect participle of fellō (“I suck, I fellate”). The word started to appear in medical literature in the 19th century but it was still treated as Latin. In 1919, the California Supreme Court struck down a law criminalizing fellatio because the state constitution required laws to be written in English. By the late 20th century, fellatio was treated as an English word.
