patrius (feminine patria, neuter patrium, adverb patriē); first/second-declension adjective

1. father’s, fatherly, paternal
   • 160 BCE, Publius Terentius Afer, Adelphoe 74–76:

     Hoc patriumst, potius cōnsuēfacere fīlium / suā sponte rēctē facere quam aliēnō metū: / hoc pater ac dominus interest.

     That’s the fatherly [way], to get his son into the habit of doing right by his own accord rather than through fear of someone else: this is the difference between a father and a master.
     (patriumst = patrium + est.)

2. hereditary; ancestral

First/second-declension adjective.
