imbibev.

Brit.

/ɪmˈbʌɪb/, U.S.

/ᵻmˈbaɪb/

Forms: Also Middle English enbibe, Middle English embybe, 1500s enbybe, embibe.

Etymology: Partly < French imbiber to soak or penetrate with moisture, (reflexive) to be soaked or penetrated with moisture, to soak into , later (especially in past participle) to imbue, in 18th cent. to drink in, imbibe; partly < Latin imbibĕre in classical Latin, to conceive or imbibe (opinions, etc.), later in lit. sense, to drink in, inhale, < im- (im- prefix¹) + bibĕre to drink. The French imbiber was apparently formed < Latin as an active verb to correspond to the past participle imbu (probably < Latin imbūtus), and as such took to itself the meanings of Latin imbuĕre, which the English verb adopted together with those of Latin imbibĕre. The early forms in English suggest a French origin, though imbiber is not recorded before 16th cent.
