verb/ad.və.niʁ/
to happen, to occur
Related: advienne que pourra
Inherited from Middle French advenir, from Latin advenīre (or re-Latinized further from an Old French form avenir). Cf. also the archaic inherited doublet aveindre (“pull or take something from its resting place; reach or attain something through effort”), coming through a Vulgar Latin form *advenĭre or influenced by atteindre.
