Etymology

    From Proto-Indo-European *-eh₂-yé-ti: *-eh₂-yé-ti > intermediate phase **-ājō with syncope of the diphthong -yé and accent shift > Proto-Italic *-āō.

    Cognate with Proto-Germanic *-ōną (referring to the whole conjugation in which the infinitive is *-ōną), Ancient Greek -άω (-áō, contracted verb), Proto-Celtic *-āti, Sanskrit -आयति (-ā́yati) and Proto-Balto-Slavic *-ā́ˀtei (whence the infinite Proto-Slavic *-ati, referring again to the whole conjugation).
