+
+ ==Etymology==
+ It is [[af|la|con-|canō|t2=to sing]].^(OLD 2012)^(Wiktionary)^(TLL) De Vaan traces [[m|la|canō]] to [[itc-pro|*kan-e-]] and [[ine-pro|*kh₂n-e-|t=to sing]], with cognates such as [[sga|cainid|t=sings]] and [[cy|canu|t=to sing]].^(de Vaan 2008)

+ ==Earliest recorded meaning==
+ The TLL dates it from Lucilius.^(TLL) Lucilius uses it of a plain countryman agreeing with others.^(OLD 2012)^(Köbler 2010)
+
+ ==Semantic evolution==
+ It is to sing together or to an accompaniment, and to celebrate in song: Cicero speaks of verses sung in mournful measures.^(OLD 2012) It is also to shout or chant together: Livy has colleagues speaking in unison.^(OLD 2012) Of instruments it is to sound together, as signals in Caesar, and of people to play an instrument: Tacitus has priests playing pipes and drums.^(OLD 2012) Figuratively it is to say the same thing, agree, and of things to be in harmony: Cicero speaks of what seemed most in agreement with probability.^(OLD 2012) The TLL notes that Virgil never uses it, the elegists and writers on music often, and Ammianus very often in the present participle.^(TLL) Church Latin glosses it to sing, celebrate in song.^(Stelten 1995)
