Word: pentimento Part of Speech: noun Etymology: [Alt: A blue-tinted painting of a man's bent neck, with a faint image of a woman's face in its background] Learned borrowing from Italian pentimento (“repentance, penance, penitence; remorse; change of opinion; correction; traces of a previous image or work in an artwork”), from pentìrsi (“to repent; to regret”) + -mento (suffix forming nouns representing the actions of verbs to which it is attached). Pentìrsi is derived from Latin paenitēre, the present active infinitive of paeniteō (“to cause to repent; to repent; to be sorry, regret”), from Proto-Indo-European *peh₁- (“to hate; to hurt”). Pronunciation: /ˌpɛntɪˈmɛntəʊ/, /ˌpɛntəˈmɛntoʊ/, [-ɾə-], [-ɾoʊ], /ˌpɛntɪˈmɛnti/ 1. The presence of traces of a previous work in an artistic or literary work; especially (painting) an image which has been painted over but is still detectable.
