Latin

Etymology

Pronunciation

(Classical Latin) IPA^(key): /disˈpli.ke.oː/, [d̪ɪs̠ˈplʲɪkeoː]
(modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /disˈpli.t͡ʃe.o/, [d̪isˈpliːt͡ʃeo]

Verb

displiceō (present infinitive displicēre, perfect active displicuī, supine displicitum); second conjugation

to displease (with dative)
- 8 CE – 12 CE, Ovid, Sorrows 1.49–50:
  dēnique sēcūrus fāmae, liber, īre mementō,
  nec tibi sit lectō displicuisse pudor.
  Lastly, [my] book, you [must] remember to go untroubled by [my] reputation; nor should you be ashamed, by having been read, to be displeasing.
  (The exiled poet addresses his new book as if it is a living emissary; Ovid's tarnished reputation may color the book’s reception back in Rome.)
to be displeased
Antonyms: gaudeō, placeō, ovō, grātulor, congrātulor, exhilarō, fruor
