Latin

Etymology

From Proto-Italic *fefake(d), 3.sg.perf.act.ind. of *fakjō. Compare Latin pepigΔ« beside pΔ“gΔ«, Oscan fefacid.[1] ⟨FH⟩ was once the way to spell /f/, when the character ⟨F⟩ ("digamma") denoted /w/. This digraph ⟨FH⟩ for /f/ also appears in Etruscan and Venetic. The character ⟨Φ⟩ denoted a plosive [pΚ°], and was therefore not suitable for a fricative like [ΙΈ] or [f].[2] This reduplicated fhefhaked was once a productive perfect-tense verb, but later gave way to fΔ“c- as the way to form the perfect stem of faciō.[3]
