adferō (present infinitive adferre, perfect active adtulī, supine adlātum); third conjugation, irregular

  1. Alternative form of afferō (to carry forth; to bring forth)
    • 52 BCE, Cicero, Pro Milone 1.1:
      Etsi vereor, iudices, ne turpe sit pro fortissimo viro dicere incipientem timere, minimeque deceat, cum T. Annius ipse magis de rei publicae salute quam de sua perturbetur, me ad eius causam parem animi magnitudinem adferre non posse, tamen haec novi iudici nova forma terret oculos, qui, quocumque inciderunt, consuetudinem fori et pristinum morem iudiciorum requirunt.
