Etymology
In summary
From Old Spanish bever, inherited from Latin bibere, bibō, from Proto-Italic *pibō, from Proto-Indo-European *píph₃eti. Cognate with Portuguese beber, Italian bere, French boire, Romanian bea. The modern spelling with intervocalic ⟨b⟩ replacing medieval ⟨v⟩ is due to Latin influence.
