† motivon.

Origin: A borrowing from Italian. Etymon: Italian motivo.

Etymology: < Italian motivo reason, cause, motive (a1342), distinctive or salient feature of a literary work (a1651), musical subject, figure, motif (a1729) < post-classical Latin motivum motive n. Compare motif n., motive n.Sense 1 is derived ultimately from a specific use in a musical context of the Italian phrase motivo di cadenza intention (to play) a cadence. The sense ‘deliberate delay’ appears in de Brossard's Dictionnaire de Musique (1701) and is carried over into Grassineau's translation (see quot. 1740 at sense 1). N.E.D. (1908) treats this as non-naturalized, and gives the pronunciation as (motī·vo) /moˈtivo/.
