Reconstruction:Latin/ad id ipsum

Latin

Etymology

From ad + id + ipsum (tempus).

Pronunciation

IPA^(key): /adˈdɛssu/

Reconstruction notes

The replacement of */ˈe/ with */ˈɛ/ may have been by analogy with ad pressum (“near”). The single /d/ in Italian is unexpected and perhaps implies a local *ad ipsum. However, /dd/ is required by the Gallo– and Occitano-Romance forms.

Adverb

*ad id ipsum (Proto-Italo-Western-Romance)?
