Latin
[edit]Etymology 1
[edit]For *hod + -ce, from Proto-Italic *hod n sg (“this”) + *ke (“here”), from Proto-Indo-European *gʰe (“discourse particle”) + *ḱe (“deictic particle”).
Alternative forms
[edit]Pronunciation
[edit]- (Classical Latin) IPA(key): /hok/, [hɔk]
- (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): /ok/, [ɔk]
- Note: the final /k/ is always geminate if a vowel follows, e.g. hoc est [hɔk.kɛst]. Contrast hic, where the older prevocalic pronunciation had /k/, but a newer pronunciation, by analogy with the neuter hoc, had /kk/.
