Etymology
From de gmh larve, from de la lārva ghost; mask.
Pronunciation
de /ˈlarfə/ [ˈlaʁ.fə] [ˈlaɐ̯-] [ˈlaː-] [ˈlaɾ-]
de /ˈlarvə/ less common; see below
de De-Larve.ogg <<Germany>> (<<Berlin>>)
de De-at-Larve.ogg Austria
The standard pronunciation is for this stem to be realised with /f/ when the preceding syllable has primary stress (as e.g. in de Larven, de entlarven), but with /v/ when the stress moves forward (as e.g. in de larval, de larviert). However, a minority of speakers may use /v/ in all prevocalic positions. Compare the same in de Nerv.

Joseph Mellish 1801 Mary Stuart 27 Verzeihung / Für diese verhaßte Larve, Königin, / Die mir zu tragen Kampf genug gekostet, / Doch der ich’s danke, daß ich mich euch nahen, / Euch Hülfe und Errettung bringen kann. Oh, pardon, / My gracious liege, for the detested mask, / Which it has cost me pain enough to wear; / Yet through such means alone have I the power / To see you, and to bring you help and rescue.
