Latin

rota persica (Iranian wheel)

Etymology

From Proto-Italic *rotā, from Proto-Indo-European *Hróth₂-eh₂, from *Hreth₂- (“to run, roll”). The exact derivational pathway from this root is disputed:

• De Vaan and Nussbaum derive Latin rota from a simple nominalization of the feminine singular of the agentive adjective *Hroth₂ós.
• Stifter, also starting off from an agentive adnominal *Hroth₂ós, supposes that Latin rota instead derives from the neuter collective/plural.
• Höfler and Yates, by contrast, take Latin rota as an *(o)-éh₂ formation *(H)rotéh₂, and posit Sanskrit रथ (ratha) as from *(H)rot-h₂-ós, a possessive derivative of the feminine word.

Pronunciation

• (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): [ˈrɔ.ta]
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): [ˈrɔː.ta]

Noun

rota f (genitive rotae); first declension

1. wheel
   • 8 CE, Ovidius, Metamorphoses 2.107–108:

     aureus axis erat, temo aureus, aurea summae
     curvatura rotae, radiorum argenteus ordo

     the axle was of gold, the pole of gold, all of gold
     the rim of the wheels, with a set of silver spokes.

2. (pars pro toto) a car, a chariot

   Si rota defuerit, tu pede carpe viam.

   If you don't have a car, you'd better make your way on foot.

3. (figuratively) the disc of the sun
   • c. 99 BCE – 55 BCE, Lucretius, De rerum natura 5:

     Hic neque tum solis rota cerni lumine largo
     altivolans poterat […]

     Nor can the sun's disc larger be by much, nor its own blaze much less […]
