"prope" meaning in All languages combined

See prope on Wiktionary

Adverb [Latin]

IPA: /ˈpro.pe/ [Classical-Latin], [ˈprɔpɛ] [Classical-Latin], /ˈpro.pe/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [ˈprɔːpe] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) Forms: propius [comparative], proximē [superlative], proxumus [superlative], proximus [superlative]
Etymology: From Proto-Indo-European *prokʷe, from *pro- + *-kʷe (equivalent to Latin pro + -que). The expected form would accordingly be *proque. The second -p- is probably due to assimilation. Compare the reverse development in quinque, coquo, which was hindered here by the initial cluster pr-. A less likely explanation is borrowing from Oscan, where -𐌐𐌄 (-pe) is the regular reflex. The change from locative/ablative to accusative is caused by the adverbial suffix.
