Lewis & Short

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

rĕd-hĭbĕo (rĕt-hĭb-), no perf., ĭtum, 2, v. a. [habeo], mercant. t. t., to take back a defective article purchased; hence, of the buyer, to carry, give back; of the seller, to receive back: redhibere est facere, ut rursus habeat venditor, quod habuerat, et quia reddendo id fiebat, idcirco redhibitio est appellata quasi redditio, Dig. 21, 1, 21; cf. the whole chapter, ib. 21, 1, De redhibitione, etc.: si malae emptae Forent, nobis istas redhibere haud liceret, to give back, return, Plaut. Most. 3, 2, 113; cf.: in mancipio vendendo dicendane vitia, quae nisi dixeris, redhibeatur mancipium jure civili, Cic. Off. 3, 23, 91; and: (eunuchum) redhiberi posse quasi morbosum, etc., Gell. 4, 2, 7; 10: (servus) redhibitus ob aliquod vitium, id. 17, 6, 2: rem, Cod. Just. 8, 27, 4: dixit (sc. venditor) se (ancillam) redhibere, si non placeat, to take or receive back, Plaut. Merc. 2, 3, 87 (but in id. Men. 5, 7, 49, the correct read. is reddibo; v. Ritschl ad h. l.).
