latin was dead long before videos were around... look for the root of sight if anything...
I think [not sure at all] that vide is the latin root for the word video, since latin word vide mean "see/look" etcetera. For example "In lumine Tuo videbimus lumen" or in English "In thy Light we shall see the light" the word videbimus is composed of vide meaning see + bi meaning shall and mus meaning we. Not sure if this is etymologically correct, nevertheless it sounded logical to me.
Yes. Comedere. It's the infinitive of the verb: to eat.
Verbs in Latin conjugate in a variety of ways. There are four basic conjugations which are referred to as their four principle parts. Comedere is the 2nd principle part: the infinitive.Latin verbs also contain properties such as mood, voice, tense, participle.
The word comedere is in the active voice, present tense, indicative mood. The basic active paradigm then is:
Comedo I eat
Comedisyou eat
Comedithe/she/it eats
Comedemus weeat
Comedetis you alleat
Comedent they eat
So if I write: comedo piscis. I am saying, "I eat fish." But if I want to say, "They ate fish," then I would have to write:Comedebant pisces. because I have changed the tense to imperfect (past) and thus the verb ending and noun case changes.
