ashteptu

Aromanian

Etymology

From a Vulgar Latin root *astectō, from Latin adspectō, variant of aspectō. Compare Daco-Romanian aștepta, aștept. The second sense of receiving guests may indicate the influence of expectō, or it may be the natural evolution of the word, as in expecting or waiting for guests.

  1. I wait.
  2. I receive or have guests.
