| Summary: | This paper examines the use of vereor in Latin literature, in order to clarify its meaning and distinguish it from other verbs of fearing, with which it shares meaning features as well as syntactic constructions.

This paper argues that vereor expresses a complex feeling conceptualising three elements at the same time: respect, shame, and apprehension. |
