Depravavi

Depravavi is a Latin verb form, the first person singular perfect active indicative of depravare, meaning to deprave or corrupt. In English it is typically translated as “I corrupted” or “I spoiled.” The verb belongs to the first conjugation; its present active infinitive is depravare, and its principal parts are depravo, depravare, depravavi, depravatus. The standard perfect endings apply in the aorist sense: depravavisti, depravavit, depravavimus, depravavistis, depravaverunt.

Etymology and meaning: the verb derives from de- plus pravus, with pravus meaning crooked or perverse. Depravare conveys making something morally or physically corrupt, perverse, or impure, and it can be used in both literal and figurative senses. In classical and medieval Latin, it commonly describes corruption of character, morals, or standards, as well as spoilage of objects or organizations.

Related forms and derivatives: the past participle is depravatus (masculine), with depravata and depravatum as the feminine and neuter forms. Related English derivatives include deprave, depraved, depravity, and depravation, all ultimately tracing back to the same Latin root. Usage notes: depravavi appears in historical Latin texts whenever a completed act of corrupting or spoiling is described, and it functions without institutional meaning beyond its ordinary moral and practical sense.
