Fréquence

Coupé comme

sa‧ber

Prononcé comme (IPA)

/saˈbeɾ/

Inherited from Latin sapere (“taste, know”). Compare English savvy, savor. The 1SG reflects an original */ˈsajo/, in common with other Romance languages, of uncertain origin. The present subjunctive forms show consonant metathesis (sapiām > */ˈsajpa/ > Sp. sepa).
