quamobremとは 意味・読み方・使い方

発音

• (Classical Latin) IPA: /ˈkʷam ˈob.rem/, [ˈkʷä̃ˑ ˈɔbrɛ̃ˑ]
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA: /ˈkʷa.mobˈrem/, [ˈkʷäːmobˈrem]
• Note: despite often being written as a single word, the graphic m does not represent a bilabial nasal /m/, but a placeless one, as always in word-final position. The word is always scanned as two longs, with (probably only partial) elision of the first vowel. Contrast with tamen, with /m/.
