==Etymology and cognates==
The term ''pati'' is believed to originate from the [[Proto-Indo-European language]].<ref name="ref17bemej">{{Citation | title=Indo-European Language and Culture: An Introduction | author=Benjamin W. Fortson | publisher=John Wiley and Sons, 2009 | isbn=978-1-4051-8896-8 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_kn5c5dJmNUC | quote=''... 'lord of the house' < Indo-Ir. *dams pati-, PIE *dems potis ...''}}</ref> Older Persian languages, such as Avestan, use the term ''pati'' or ''paiti'' as a title extensively, e.g. ''dmana-paiti'' (master of the house, similar to Sanskrit ''dam-pati'').<ref name="ref79pelig"/><ref name="ref17bemej"/>

In Sanskrit, it is 'pat-' when uncompounded and meaning"husband" instrumental case p/atyā-; dative case p/atye-; genitive case ablative p/atyur-; locative case p/atyau-; But when meaning"lord, master", and in fine compositi or 'at the end of a compound' regularly inflected with exceptions; ) a master, owner, possessor, lord, ruler, sovereign etc. For example, in the Vedas, we come across words such as Brhas –pati, Praja – pati, Vachas –pati, Pasu – pati, Apam –pati, Bhu pati, Tridasa – pati and Nr - pati. Here the 'pati’' is suffix translated as “Lord of …………..”

In several Indo-European languages, cognate terms exist in varying forms (often as a suffix), for instance in the [[English language|English]] word "despot" from the [[Greek language|Greek]] δεσ-πότης, meaning "''master, despot, lord, owner''."<ref name="ref79pelig"/> In Latin, the term changed meaning from ''master'' to ''able'', and is "''an example of a substantive coming to be used as an adjective''," resulting in English words such as ''potent'', ''potential'' and ''potentate''.<ref name="ref35qulih">{{Citation | title=A short manual of comparative philology for classical students | author=Peter Giles | publisher=Macmillan and Co., 1895 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PExwAAAAIAAJ | quote=''... in Lithuanian pats (older patis), which means husband or lord and is identical with the Greek , Skt. patis and Latin potis (no longer a substantive) ... The Latin form of this word - potis - gives us an example of a substantive coming to be used as an adjective. In the verb possum, a corruption of potis sum, the original sense 'I am master' has faded into the vaguer 'I am able' ...''}}</ref> In [[Lithuanian language|Lithuanian]], ''pats'' as a standalone word came to mean husband, himself (''patis'' in [[Old Lithuanian language|Old Lithuanian]]), as did ''pati'' in Hindi/ [[Hindustani language|Hindustani]].<ref name="ref35qulih"/>
