Usage notes

 * This form is used almost exclusively with the second person singular pronoun in Old Latin up until the early Classical period as an archaicism, with Cicero hesitating between 'abs tē' and 'ā tē' until the latter won out in the final years of his life. The variant most likely became obsolete at the latest by the end of the Augustan era.
