Etymology of soliviantar
We are dealing with a word that was formed from the verb soliviar , which can be defined as "to raise from the base." It was combined with the Romance formant nt- , from the present participle, after which comes the ending -ar .
Its origins are older, as they take us back to spoken vulgar Latin, where subleviare was said to refer to sublevare , the more cultured term, which bequeathed us the verb sublevar , used to this day in Spanish. Note the presence of the root levis , a Latin adjective that translates as "weightless, light", from the family of relieve, relieve and relief , among others.
As with soliviantar , the idea is always the same: an upward force is exerted to get another person to rise up. The rising up, in this case, is symbolic since it can be described as a state of rebellion to which the indirect object is incited by the subject .
