adorar
/adoˈɾaɾ/ · A2 · verb
to adore
❤️ adorar = English adore; both from Latin adorare, ad (to) + orare (pray)
Latin adorare meant to pray to, built from ad (to) + orare (speak, pray). The same orare gives English oration and Spanish orar (to pray). So adorar is literally to pray toward someone, which covers both worship and deep love.
