Frequency
Pronounced as (IPA)
[pəˈti]
Etymology
Ultimately from Latin patī. Attested in the writings of Ramon Llull. Coromines tentatively proposes that it was inherited (if so, via Vulgar Latin *patīre), considering its relatively "popular" character. This, however, would be at odds with the unlenited /-t-/.
