latir
/laˈtiɾ/ · B1 · verb
to beat, throb
🐕💓 From Latin glattire, to yelp: a dog barks, a heart beats. latido = heartbeat
The same verb covers a dog's bark and a heart's beat, both short repeated pulses of sound. The noun latido (heartbeat) is easy to hear inside latir. In Mexico, me late means it sounds good to me, as in my heart beats for it.
