Etymology

From Proto-Italic *staēō, from Proto-Indo-European *sth₂éh₁yeti, stative verb from *steh₂-. Cognates include Sanskrit तिष्ठति ‎(tiṣṭhati) (root स्था ‎(sthā)), Persian ایستا ‎(istā, “standing; stopping”), Ancient Greek ἵστημι ‎(hístēmi) and στάσις ‎(stásis), Old English standan (English stand), Bulgarian стоя ‎(stoja).

By its appearance through Latin sound laws, this stative verb, against all others of this class in the 2nd conjugation, belongs to the 1st conjugation.
