malevolentia

as-sŭesco ( ads-, B. and K., Rib., Halm, Weissenb.; ads- and ass-, Merk.), ēvi, ētum, 3 (adsuëtus, four syll., Phaedr. 3, prol. 14), v. a., to use or accustom one to something, to habituate; or, more freq., v. n., to accustom one's self to, to be wont, to be accustomed to.

The idea of the ad, which would require the acc. or dat. case, is not, as at a later period, prominent in the word, but that of suesco; accordingly, pr., to adopt some custom, to addict or apply one's self to a custom or habit, to become accustomed to something; so that the abl. of specification, as in amore affici, pedibus laborare, etc., only designates more specifically the object which is the subject of that custom; cf.
