verb

verb: [14] Latin verbum originally meant simply ‘word’ (a sense preserved in English verbal [15], verbiage [18], and verbose [17]); the specific application to a ‘word expressing action or occurrence’, which passed into English via Old French verbe, is a secondary development. Verbum goes back ultimately to the Indo- European base *wer-, which also produced English word. English verve [17] comes ultimately from the Latin plural verba.
=> verbose, verve, word
