    ămo, āvi, ātum, 1, v. a. (amāsso = amavero, Plaut. Cas. 5, 4, 23; id. Curc. 4, 4, 22; id. Mil. 4, 2, 16; cf. Paul. ex Fest. p. 28 Müll.:

    amāsse = amavisse,

    Ter. Eun. 5, 1, 11:

    amantum = amantium,

    Plaut. Men. 2, 3, 4; Lucr. 4, 1077; Ov. A. A. 1, 439) [cf. Sanscr. kam = to love; hama = Sanscr. sam = Germ. sammt; Engl. same, Lat. similis; with the radical notion of likeness, union], to like, to love, eraô, phileô (both in the higher and the lower sense, opp. odisse; while diligere (agapô) designates esteem, regard; opp. neglegere or spernere; cf. Doed. Syn. IV. p. 97; in the high sense in the philos. writings and Epp. of Cicero; often in the low sense, esp. in the comic poets. In the Vulg. amo and amor are comparatively little used, prob. from their bad associations, amo being used 51 times and amor 20. Instead of these words, diligo, dilectio and caritas were used. Diligo (incl. dilectus) occurs 422 times, and dilectio and caritas 144 times in all; dilectio 43 and caritas 101 times).
    I.
    In gen.:

    quid autem est amare, nisi velle bonis aliquem adfici, quam maximis, etiamsi ad se ex iis nihil redeat,

    Cic. Fin. 2, 24:

    amare autem nihil aliud est, nisi eum ipsum diligere, quem ames, nullā indigentiā, nullā utilitate quaesitā,

    id. Am. 27, 100:

    videas corde amare (eos) inter se,

    Plaut. Capt. 2, 3, 60; Ter. Ad. 5, 3, 42:

    liberi amare patrem atque matrem videntur,

    Vulg. Matt. 6, 5:

    ipse Pater amat vos, h. l. used of God,

    ib. Joan. 16, 27:

    Cicerones pueri amant inter se,

    Ter. Ad. 4, 5, 67:

    quem omnes amare meritissimo debemus,

    Cic. de Or. 1, 55, 234.—So, amare aliquem ex animo, to love with all one's heart, Cic. Q. Fr. 1, 1, 5:

    id. Cat. 3, 5:

    aliquem amore singulari,

    id. Fam. 15, 20:

    sicut mater unicum amat filium suum,

    Vulg. 2 Reg. 1, 26:

    dignus amari,

    Verg. E. 5, 89.—Amare in ccntr. with diligere, as stronger, more affectionate: Clodius valde me diligit, vel, ut emphatikôteron dicam, valde me amat, Cic. ad Brut. 1, 1; id. Fam. 9, 14:

    eum a me non diligi solum, verum etiam amari,

    id. ib. 13, 47; id. Fragm. ap. Non. 421, 30 (Orell. IV. 2, p. 466); Plin. Ep. 3, 9.—But diligere, as indicative of esteem, is more emph. than amare, which denotes an instinctive or affectionate love:

    non quo quemquam plus amem, aut plus diligam, Eo feci, sed, etc.,

    Ter. Eun. 1, 2, 16:

    homo nobilis, qui a suis et amari et diligi vellet,

    Cic. Verr. 2, 4, 23:

    te semper amavi dilexique,

    have loved and esteemed, id. Fam. 15, 7: diligis (agapais) me plus his? Etiam, Domine, tu scis quia amo (philô) te, Vulg. Joan. 21, 15 sqq., ubi v. Alford, Gr. Test. al.—Hence in asseverations: ita (sic) me dii (bene) ament or amabunt, so may the gods love me, by the love of the gods, most assuredly:

    ita me di amabunt, etc.,

    Plaut. Poen. 1, 3, 30 (v. the pass. in its connection):

    ita me di ament, credo,

    Ter. And. 5, 4, 44:

    non, ita me di bene ament,

    id. Hec. 2, 1, 9:

    sic me di amabunt, ut, etc.,

    id. Heaut. 3, 1, 54.—Hence also ellipt.: ita me Juppiter! (sc. amet or amabit), Plaut. Poen. 1, 3, 31 (so in Engl. with different ellipsis, bless me! sc. God).—And as a salutation: Me. Salvus atque fortunatus, Euclio, semper sies. Eu. Di te ament, Me gadore, the gods bless you! Plaut. Aul. 2, 2, 6 al.—

    id. Off. 1, 9, 29; so id. Att. 4, 16 med.; id. Har. Resp. 9:

    Sall. C. 11, 6:

    quae (via) eo me solvat amantem,

    Verg. A. 4, 479:

    non aequo foedere amare,

    Sall. J. 41, 3:

    amare nemus et fugere urbem,

    Hor. Ep. 2, 2, 77:

    amat bonus otia Daphnis,

    Verg. E. 5, 61:

    non omnes eadem mirantur amantque,

    Hor. Ep. 2, 2, 58:

    mirā diversitate naturā, cum īdem homines sic ament inertiam et oderint quietem,

    Tac. G. 15:

    pax et quies tunc tantum amata,

    id. ib. 40:

    qui amant vinum et pinguia,

    Vulg. Prov. 21, 17:

    amant salutationes in foro,

    ib. Luc. 20, 46: amat Janua limen, loves to remain shut, i. e. is constantly closed, Hor. C. 1, 25, 3; so,

I shall like you ( if you say, do, etc., that for me).—Hence in entreaties = oro, quaeso, precor (with ut or ne foll.), be so good, I pray, entreat you (in Plaut. and Ter. very freq.; in the latter always amabo without te;

    in Cic. only in Epistt.): quis hic, amabo, est, qui, etc.,
