UTOR

Utor is a Latin verb meaning "to use." It is a deponent verb, so its forms are passive in form but active in meaning. It governs the ablative of means or instrument and is used to express the act of using something rather than performing an action with it. The principal parts are utor, uti, usus sum. For example, libris utor means "I use the books."

In modern contexts, UTOR or utor may appear as an acronym or as part of proper names. As an acronym, UTOR is sometimes used to refer to the University of Toronto, though this usage is not universal and other abbreviations such as U of T or UToronto are more common. In addition, utor (or Utor) can appear as a surname or place-name in various cultures or in fictional works, where it functions as a proper noun rather than a common term.

There is no single, universal definition of "utor" outside these contexts, and its meaning depends on usage: a Latin verb with deponent morphology, an acronym in organizational naming, or a proper name in literature or onomastics. The term thus has multiple, context-dependent meanings and is not defined as a single concept in standard reference works.
