Heauton Timorumenos (“The Self-Tormentor”) by Publius Terentius Afer

I am a man, I consider nothing that is human alien to me.

Homo sum, humani nihil ā me alienum puto.

French: à

Italian: a

Spanish: a

Portuguese: a

→ Norwegian Bokmål: a, ab (learned)

From Proto-Italic *ap, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂epó (“off, away”) (whence English off, of and after). See also po-. Cognate with ᾰ̓πό (apó). The reconstruction of the Proto-Italic form is somewhat uncertain, as it's not clear when or how the final vowel of the PIE form was lost. The voicing of the final consonant to -b can be interpreted as an example of regular voicing of plosives in word-final position, as in fēced < *fēcet, a sound change that some reconstruct at the common Italic stage. Others explain -b here as the result of analogical extension from clusters ending in a voiced consonant. The form ap- is attested in composition in Latin aperiō and Umbrian 𐌀𐌐𐌄𐌇𐌕𐌓𐌄 (apehtre).
