Part of Speech: Verb
Explanation: Utor is a Latin deponent verb, meaning it has passive forms but an active meaning. It signifies 'to use' or 'to employ' something. A key characteristic of utor is that it always takes its object in the ablative case, rather than the accusative case typical for transitive verbs. For example, one would say 'utor gladio' (I use a sword) instead of 'utor gladium'. It can also convey the sense of enjoying or experiencing something.
