soddisfare
Italian
editEtymology
editInherited from Latin satisfacere. Once the first element satis (“enough”) had been lost as an independent word, the verb was remodelled according to the Italian prefixes so- and dis-, as if derived from a Latin *sub-dis-facere. Doublet of satisfare, a borrowing from Latin.
