pathe

See also: -pathe

English

Pronunciation
  • IPA(key): /ˈpeɪð/

Verb

pathe

  1. Misspelling of pave.

Usage notes

This misspelling derives from a mishearing of pave as "pathe" in association with path, in the same way bathe is associated with bath. This is an easy mistake in accents where /v/ and /ð/ are merged, or whose speakers only weakly distinguish the sounds in context.
