hoc

Inherited from Old Catalan hoc, from Latin hoc (“this”). Cognate with Occitan òc and partially with French oui.

• IPA^(key): (Central, Balearic, Valencian) [ˈɔk]

hoc

1. (obsolete) yes (affirmation; commonly used to respond affirmatively to a question)

hoc

1. indeed the opposite of not

   Voleu venir amb nosaltres? – Hoc vull venir!

   Do you want to come with us? – I do want to come.!

• Hoc has largely fallen into disuse in favour of sí.

• no

• “hoc” in Diccionari normatiu valencià, Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua.
• “hoc” in Diccionari català-valencià-balear, Antoni Maria Alcover and Francesc de Borja Moll, 1962.

For *hod +‎ -ce, from Proto-Italic *hod n sg (“this”) + *ke (“here”), from Proto-Indo-European *gʰe (“discourse particle”) + *ḱe (“deictic particle”).

• hocc, oc, occ

• (Classical) IPA^(key): /hok/, [hɔk]
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /ok/, [ɔk]
• Note: the final /k/ is always geminate if a vowel follows, e.g. hoc est [hɔk.kɛst]. Contrast hic, where the older prevocalic pronunciation had /k/, but a newer pronunciation, by analogy with the neuter hoc, had /kk/.

hoc

1. nominative/accusative neuter singular of hic (“this”)

hōc

1. ablative masculine/neuter singular of hic (“this”)
2. (with a comparative, correlative of quod) for this reason, because of this
   • 69 BCE, Cicero, Pro Fonteio 17.8:

     ...quō maius crīmen sit id quod ostendātur falsum, hōc maiōrem ab eō iniūriam fierī, quī id cōnfingat.

     ...the more serious the accusation which is shown to be false, the greater the offense committed by the fabricator.

According to De Vaan (2008), from a masculine singular instrumental of Proto-Indo-European *gʰi-ḱe (“this, here”). Contrast Latin hūc, which is probably from the locative instead.

hōc (not comparable)

1. hither, to this place

   Synonyms: hūc, hōrsum
