Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

1. taxim, perf. for tetigerim; v. tango init.

2. taxim, adv. [tango; lit. by touching; cf. sensim], gently, little by little, by degrees, gradually (ante-class.), Varr. ap. Non. 47, 27; 550, 18; Pompon. ib. 178, 20 (Com. Fragm. v. 23 Rib.); Lucil. ib. 169, 32.
