Reconstruction talk:Latin/voleo

RFD discussion: January 2022
Request to undelete Reconstruction:Latin/voleo and Reconstruction:Latin/volere. They are linked from many etymology sections, and are a key link in understanding the derivation of forms such as from. They were deleted by as "duplicates" of the attested Classical forms, which is a weak reason to summarily delete an entry. This, that and the other (talk) 03:42, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I undeleted them. Benwing2 (talk) 18:19, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I don't think there is any controversy here so I'll strike this section. This, that and the other (talk) 02:15, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Attested
Augustine attests the verbal noun genitive form as volendī. https://latin.stackexchange.com/questions/11279/was-there-ever-a-difference-between-volo-and-volo Kwékwlos (talk) 00:32, 3 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Dubious. With all due respect to the TLFi, volendi does not confirm *volēre over *volĕre, or even any significant change from velle, as nothing has been replaced (the verb did not have a gerund in CL, so one was later supplied).
 * That said, I will try to see if there are actual attestations of *volēre. You'd think there would be for a verb with such a common meaning. Nicodene (talk) 01:11, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Reichenau attests si voles. Kwékwlos (talk) 12:28, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
