    Lit., truly, just so, certainly, doubtless, even so, yes, as a confirmatory reply (ante-class. and rare, while vero is classical; v. vero init.): So. Facies? Ch. Verum, Ter. Heaut. 5, 3, 11; Plaut. As. 4, 2, 45. Ct. Men' quaerit? Sy. Verum, Ter. Ad. 4, 2, 4; id. Eun. 2, 3, 56; 5, 6, 18.—
    2.
    Transf.
    a.
    In gen., as a strongly corroborative adversative particle, but in truth, but not with standing, but yet; and after negative clauses, but even, but:

    verum veniat sane,

    Cic. Verr. 2, 2, 31, § 76 et saep.—Strengthened by enim, vero, and (in class. prose) enimvero, but truly, but indeed:

    verum enim, quando bene promeruit, fiat,

    exspectabantur Calendae Januariae, fortasse non recte. Verum praeterita omittamus,

    Cic. Phil. 5, 12, 31: verum quidem haec hactenus;

    cetera quotiescumque voletis,

    sed hoc nihil ad me... Verum hoc (ut dixi) nihil ad me. Illud ad me, etc.,

    id. de Or. 2, 32, 139.—
    B.
    vērō, in truth, in fact, certainly, truly, to be sure, surely, assuredly:

    eho, mavis vituperari falso, quam vero extolli?

    Plaut. Most. 1, 3, 21:

    iste eum sese ait, qui non est, esse: et qui vero est negat,

    Cic. Verr. 2, 2, 29, § 70; Sall. J. 94, 3; Stat. Th. 1, 412; cf.

    immo vero indignum facinus faxo ex me audies,

    Ter. And. 5, 2, 13. —
    b.
    In corroborative replies, yes, certainly, by all means, assuredly, etc. (class.; while verum in this sense is only ante-class.): De. An quid est etiam amplius? He. Vero amplius, Ter. Ad. 3, 4, 23; id. Eun. 3, 1, 12: M. Fuisti saepe, credo, in scholis philosophorum. A. Vero, ac libenter quidem, Cic. Tusc. 2, 11, 26:

    id. Fin. 4, 28, 80: M. Cadere, opinor, in sapientem aegritudinem tibi dixisti videri. A. Et vero ita existimo, id. Tusc. 3, 6, 12.—With immo, nay rather: De. Quin tu mi argentum cedo. Ph. Immo vero uxorem tu cedo, Ter. Phorm. 5, 8, 43:

    sed da mihi nunc, satisne probas? Immo vero et haec, etc.,

    Cic. Ac. 1, 3, 10:

    immo vero, inquit, ii vivunt, qui, etc.,

    id. Rep. 6, 14, 14: S. Quid domi? pluresne praesunt negotiis tuis? L. Immo vero unus, inquit, id. ib. 1, 39, 61.—And, to strengthen negative answers, joined with minime: S.

    id. Rep. 1, 3, 6:

    neque vero id satis habuit,

    Nep. Epam. 4, 5.—
    2.
    Transf., as a strongly corroborative adversative particle, but in fact, but indeed, however (always placed after a word):

  • 20 enim

    ĕnim, conj. [comp. of ĕ for pronom. stem i, and nam], a demonstrative corroborative particle. (Its position is regularly after the first word, or the first two or more closely connected words in the sentence;

    only in the comic writers sometimes at the beginning. Put after est in the fourth place: in eo est enim illud,

    Cic. Off. 1, 20, 67:

    ab omnibus est enim, etc.,

    id. Deiot. 13, 37;

    al., see below. Put after quoque: id quoque enim traditur,

    Liv. 2, 18; 3, 50; 23, 12; 27, 22; 30, 1; 33, 30; 36, 27; but not in Cicero, v. Madv. ad Cic. Fin. 2, 33, 108, p. 325.—Sometimes it divides an apparent compound:

    quotus enim quisque,

    Tac. Or. 26 fin.)
    I.
    To corroborate a preceding assertion, like equidem, certe, vero; hence freq. connected with these particles, esp. with vero (v. under B.), truly, certainly, to be sure, indeed, in fact: Ch. Te uxor aiebat tua Me vocare. St. Ego enim vocari jussi, certainly, I did order you to be called, Plaut. Cas. 2, 4, 2:

    ornanda est enim dignitas domo,

    Cic. Off. 1, 39, 139:

    in his est enim aliqua obscuritas,

    in fact, indeed, id. Tusc. 1, 32, 78:

    ille (Dumnorix) enim revocatus resistere ac se manu defendere coepit,

    in fact, indeed, Caes. B. G. 5, 7, 8:

    tum M. Metilius, id enim ferendum esse negat,

    it was really not to be endured, Liv. 22, 25:

    enim istaec captio est,

    this is clearly a trick, Plaut. Ep. 5, 2, 36:

    enim me nominat,

    positively he mentions my name, id. Trin. 5, 2, 10:

    enim non ibis nunc vicissim, nisi scio,

    you shall positively not go, id. Pers. 2, 2, 54; id. Capt. 3, 4, 60; cf. id. Most. 5, 2, 12: Th. Quid tute tecum? Tr. Nihil enim, nothing truly, Plaut. Most. 3, 1, 24; so,

    tu enim repertu's Philocratem qui superes veriverbio!

    you indeed! Plaut. Capt. 3, 4, 36:

    ex his duo sibi putant concedi: neque enim quisquam repugnat,

    Cic. Ac. 2, 13, 41 Goer.; cf. id. Mil. 3, 8; id. Deiot. 12, 33 sq.; id. Verr. 2, 1, 13; id. Phil. 7, 8; Liv. 7, 32; 34, 7; Hor. Ep. 1, 19, 44 al.:

    non assequimur. Isti enim videlicet Attici nostri quod volunt, assequuntur,

    Cic. Brut. 84, 288;

    so (with videlicet),

    id. Font. 9, 19; id. Cat. 2, 6, 12: Ca. Faxo haut tantillum dederis verborum mihi. Me. Nempe enim tu, credo, me imprudentem obrepseris, yes, indeed, I believe you are trying to take me in, Plaut. Trin. 1, 2, 23.—
    B.
    Strengthened by vero, and combined with it into one word, ĕnimvēro (unlike enim, usually beginning the sentence), yes indeed, yes truly, of a truth, to be sure, certainly, indeed:

    enimvero Chremes nimis graviter cruciat adulescentulum,

    Ter. Heaut. 5, 5, 1:

    enimvero, inquit Crassus, mirari satis non queo, etc.,

    Cic. de Or. 1, 36; Liv. 5, 25; 1, 51 fin.:

    postridie mane ab eo postulo, ut, etc.: ille enimvero negat,

    and of a truth, he denies it, Cic. Verr. 2, 4, 66; so,

    ille enimvero,

    id. ib. 2, 5, 39; Liv. 3, 35 fin.:

    hic enimvero,

    Cic. Verr. 2, 3, 60:

Immo enimvero infeliciter, Ter. Eun. 2, 3, 37.—And in ironical or indignant discourse: Da. Ubi voles, arcesse. Si. Bene sane:

    id enimvero hic nunc abest,

    that, to be sure, is wanting here as yet, Ter. And. 5, 2, 7; id. Phorm. 3, 1, 1:

    enimvero ferendum hoc quidem non est,

    Cic. Verr. 2, 1, 26; Liv. 43, 1; cf. id. 6, 14; 25, 41; 27, 30; 33, 46; 34, 58.
    II.
    Transf.
    A.
    To prove or show the grounds of a preceding assertion, for: haec sunt non nugae;

    non enim mortualia,

    Plaut. As. 4, 1, 63:

    mihi vero omne tempus est ad meos libros vacuum: numquam enim sunt illi occupati,

    Cic. Rep. 1, 9:

    quas (geometricas formas) ut vidisset, exclamavisse, ut bono essent animo, videre enim se hominum vestigia,

    id. ib. 1, 17 et saep. —In parenthetical sentences:

    quocirca (dicendum est enim saepius), cum judicaveris, diligere oportet,

    Cic. Lael. 22, 85; cf. id. Tusc. 2, 24, 58; id. Ac. 2, 7, 22:

    rumpor et invideo (quid enim non omnia narrem?), etc.,

    Ov. H. 16, 221:

    di maris et caeli (quid enim nisi vota supersunt?), etc.,

    id. Tr. 1, 2, 1 et saep.—
    2.
    Sometimes the assertion, the reason for which is given, is to be mentally supplied, Cic. Tusc. 5, 9, 26; cf. id. de Or. 2, 6, 24; id. Leg. 2, 7, 17: Am. Qui istuc potis est fieri, quaeso, ut dicis, jam dudum, modo? Al. Quid enim censes? te ut deludam contra? etc., what then do you think? Plaut. Am. 2, 2, 62; cf. Cic. Tusc. 1, 6, 10; Hor. S. 2, 3, 124; Curt. 5, 8; 10, 2 al.—So the expression: quid enim dicam? commonly ellipt.: quid enim? qs. for what can be objected to the assertion just made? quid enim de T. Tatio Sabino dicam, Liv. 4, 3, 12:

    quid enim? fortemne possumus dicere eundem illum Torquatum?

    Cic. Fin. 2, 22, 72; 2, 28, 93; id. Fam. 5, 15, 2; Lucc. ap. Cic. Fam. 5, 14, 2; Hor. S. 1, 1, 7; 2, 3, 132 et saep.—
    B.
    To explain a preceding assertion, for instance, namely: Sy. Si futurum est, do tibi operam hanc. Mi. Quomodo? Ut enim, ubi mihi vapulandumst, tu corium sufferas, Plaut. Poen. 4, 2, 33; Sc Metuo maxime. Pa. Quid metuis? Sc. Enim ne nos nosmet perdiderimus, id. Mil. 2, 5, 19: Lu. Di me perdant, si bibi, Si bibere potui. Pa. Qui jam? Lu. Quia enim obsorbui, why because, id. ib. 3, 2, 21; id. Am. 2, 2, 34; id. Capt. 4, 2, 104; id. Cas. 2, 6, 33; Ter. Heaut. 1, 2, 14:

    quod enim,

    App. M. 9, p. 228, 16: non igitur videtur nec frumentarius ille Rhodios nec hic aedium venditor celare emptores debuisse. Neque enim id est celare, quicquid reticeas;

    sed cum, etc.,

    Cic. Off. 3, 13 fin.:

    antiquissimam sententiam, tum omnium populorum et gentium consensu comprobatam sequor. Duo sunt enim divinandi genera, etc.,

    id. Div. 1, 6, 11; cf. id. de Imp. Pomp. 2, 6. See Hand, Turs. II. p. 374-409.
