āter-
Fire. - Suffixed zero-grade form *ātr-o‑. atrabilious, from Latin āter (feminine ātra), black (< "blackened by fire").
- Suffixed zero-grade form *ātr-yo‑. atrium, from Latin ātrium, forecourt, hall, atrium (perhaps originally the place where the smoke from the hearth escaped through a hole in the roof).
- Compound shortened zero-grade form *atro-əkw‑, "black-looking" (*əkw‑, "looking"; see okw-). atrocious, from Latin ā̆trōx, frightful.
- Basic form *āter. zircon, from Old Persian *ātar, fire (stem āç‑ attested in month name āçiyādiya, "(month) of fire-worship"), from Indo-Iranian *ātar.
- Possibly, but obscurely related to this root is Sanskrit atharvā, atharvan‑, priest (-van‑, possessive suffix): Atharva-Veda.
