+ It is from [[in-]] and [[videō]] “to see”.^(OLD 2012)^(Wiktionary)^(TLL) Wiktionary explains that the meaning went from “look at” to “look askance at” to “envy”.^(Wiktionary) Lewis and Short compare [[grc|βασκαίνω|tr=baskaínō|t=to bewitch, cast the evil eye]].^(Lewis & Short 1879) Inscriptions spell it ⟨inveid-⟩.^(OLD 2012)

+ ==Semantic evolution==

+ In early Latin it could mean to cast an evil eye on, as in Accius and Catullus, a use Lewis and Short call only ante-classical.^(Lewis & Short 1879)^(Gaffiot 2016) Its common sense was to look askance at, envy, be jealous of, with a dative of the person or the thing, as in Plautus and Nepos.^(OLD 2012) From Virgil onwards it also meant to begrudge, refuse, and Horace has it with a genitive, perhaps on the model of Greek ''phthoneîn''.^(OLD 2012)

+

+ In Ecclesiastical Latin it meant to envy, grudge, be jealous.^(Stelten 1995) Its noun ''invidia'' passed through Old French ''envie'' into [[en|envy]] in the late 13th century.^(Etymonline)
