Latin

Alternative forms

• utī
• utei (old form)

Etymology

Some supposed ut < uti < utī < utei < *utai < *uta + i, with this *uta corresponding to ita (and utinam < *utanam). Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *kʷís, *kʷos and *só. See ubi for the loss of c.

Jussive and optative sentences were often followed by some adverbial ut(i), originally meaning "in some way" (sometimes interchangeable with instrumental qui (“by some means”)). Ut becoming habitual, lost its full meaning and was weakened to the conjunction ut, which now fell to govern the subjunctive mood. This was the epitome of the evolution of subordinate clauses in Latin.

Pronunciation

• (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): [ˈʊt]
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): [ˈut̪]

2. although

ut (followed by the indicative)

1. like, as, just as

   Synonyms: velut, sīcut, tamquam, quasi
2. as soon as, when, whenever
3. that, for that, because

Usage notes

Often coupled with ita, such that ita x, ut y means "so/thus x, as y".
