/ɪn ˌvinoʊ ˈvɛriˌtɑs/

Forms: 1500s in uino veritas, 1500s– in vino veritas.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin in vino veritas.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin in vino veritas, lit. ‘in wine (there is) truth’ (a1536 in Erasmus) < classical Latin in in prep. + vīnō , ablative of vīnum wine n.¹ + vēritās verity n., after Greek ἐν οἴνῳ ἀλήθεια (see note).Erasmus (a1536) gives the Greek form of the proverb as ἐν οἴνῳ ἀλήθεια ‘in wine (there is) truth’, but the form found in ancient Greek (Aeolic) is οἶνος καὶ ἀλάθεα, lit. ‘wine and truth’. Compare also ancient Greek οἶνος..ἀληθής ‘wine (is) true’ (Plato).

Truth comes out under the influence of alcohol; a drunken person tells the truth.
