Noun
editmare n (genitive maris); third declension
- sea
- c. 270 BCE – c. 201 BCE, Gnaeus Naevius, Bellum Punicum , (fragment in Priscian, Institutiones Grammaticae, 7, De genetivo plurali tertiae declinationis):
- Neptunum regnatorem marum
- Neptune, ruler of the seas
- Neptunum regnatorem marum
- c. 52 BCE, Julius Caesar, Commentarii de Bello Gallico 5.1:
- [facit...] ad onera ac multitudinem iumentorum transportandam paulo latiores quam quibus in reliquis utimur maribus.
- In order to transport cargo and beasts of burden, he [Julius Caesar] had them made a little wider than the ones we use in other seas.
- [facit...] ad onera ac multitudinem iumentorum transportandam paulo latiores quam quibus in reliquis utimur maribus.
- 13th c., Roger Bacon, Secretum Secretorum 2.29 (De preparacione carnum viperarum sive serpentum et draconum):
- Et oportet ut alienentur cornute et varie et aspides declines ad albedinem. Et non capiantur ex piscinis vel litoribus fluviorum et aquarum vel marium, vel de petrosis, quoniam in eis sunt quercine, facientes sitim, immo capiantur in loco longinquo ab humorositate.
- 1921, Joseph Pope, George Monro Grant, Canada's official motto :
- a marī usque ad mare
- from sea to sea
- a marī usque ad mare
Declension
editThird-declension noun (neuter, “pure” i-stem).
singular | plural | |
---|---|---|
nominative | mare | maria |
genitive | maris | marium marum |
dative | marī | maribus |
accusative | mare | maria |
ablative | marī mare |
maribus |
vocative | mare | maria |
- The ablative singular can be marī or mare.
- The genitive plural form marium, although regularly formed for an i-stem noun, is not attested in the corpus of classical texts. Marum is found only once, in a line from Gnaeus Naevius.
- The 5th/6th-century grammarian Priscian (Institutiones 7) says it is rarely used in the genitive plural, noting Caesar's use of maribus too. Similarly, the 4th-century grammarian Charisius claims it lacks both a genitive plural *marium and a *maribus form (but see the quotation from Julius Caesar above):
"maria" tamen quamvis dicantur pluraliter, attamen nec "marium" nec "maribus" dicemus
— although maria can be said in the plural, nevertheless we won't say marium nor maribus (Ars 1.11).

editPronunciation
editEtymology 1
editMost likely inherited from Latin maiōrem,[1] accusative singular of Latin maior, albeit with an unusual (though not impossible) phonological evolution. Compare Aromanian mari, Megleno-Romanian mari, Dalmatian maur, Portuguese mor, Logudorese mere and Campidanese meri.[2] An alternative, less likely theory proposes a derivation from Latin marem (“male”), with a semantic shift from "male" to "large", on an idiomatic basis (i.e. assuming that the expression "s-a făcut mare", meaning "[ 3rd-pers. sg. ] grew up" [literally "made themselves big"] initially referred exclusively to boys becoming men, and that it shifted over time to refer more broadly to physical growth, and by extension, being large). Other theories include a derivation from its homonym mare (meaning sea), and a substrate origin (either Proto-Albanian or Thracian).
