Etymology[edit]

From Proto-Italic *plekāō, from Proto-Indo-European *pleḱ- (to plait, to weave) (with i from its compounds, which had much use), the PIE root being an extension of Proto-Indo-European *pel- (to wrap). Cognate with plectō.[1]

Pronunciation[edit]

Verb[edit]

plicō (present infinitive plicāre, perfect active plicuī, supine plicātum); first conjugation

  1. (transitive) to fold, bend or flex; to roll up
  2. (late, non classical meaning) (transitive) to arrive (this meaning comes from sailors, for whom the folding of a ship’s sails meant arrival on land)
