Pronunciation -itō stressed on antepenult Suffix 1+ -itō Forms frequentative verbs from existing verbs or from certain adjectives (notably adjectives of the third declension in la -is, la -alis, and la -bilis/la -ibilis) Usage notes Unlike la -tō, this suffix is attached to the present stem of the verb. The vowel of the suffix replaces any final vowel of the stem, thus la cantō cantā- > la cantitō cant-itā-. It is often found suffixed to first conjugation verbs, including existing frequentatives in la -tō, but some examples from other conjugations also exist, such as la agō > la agitō.
