Etymology

From rādīcula, a diminutive of rādīx (“root”), via a process of 'de-diminutivization'. This apparently resulted in two variants: one with a short ĭ in the second syllable, the other with a long ī.

Pronunciation
  • IPA(key): /ˈradɪka/, /raˈdika/

Noun

*rādī̆ca f (plural *rādī̆cās) (Proto-Romance)
