@Holodwig21 Hey, interesting entry! I wonder if you can verify if tasugo would also be derived from this one? β Mnemosientje (t Β· c) 20:11, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
- @Mnemosientje: I tried but I couldnβt find much about the Spanish one in the Internet. The Spanish Wiktionary page of tasugo is red so it didn't really help me that much. In my opinion it looks completely plausible that it derives from *πΈπ°π·ππΏπΊπ (*ΓΎahsuks) instead of taxus. I went and tried to apply Spanish phonetic changes and the result seem positive, so my conclusion is that it really drives from the Gothic form.
- Good work on finding the word, Iβll let you make the necessary changes since it was you who suggested in look into tasugo. π·π»πΏπ³π°π πΉπ²π π°π»π°ππ΄πΉπΊπΉπ²π²π 22:52, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
- I couldn't find any confirmation -- the etymological dictionaries I could find pdf's of don't mention it. I've added the etymology tentatively. β Mnemosientje (t Β· c) 23:39, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
- The RAE has "Del lat. *taxΕ«cus, por taxo, -Εnis." DTLHS (talk) 23:41, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
- That works! Thank you. I'll correct the affected entries accordingly. (It seems some of the other proposed descendants don't have very certain etymologies either regarding the Gothic connection. The *taxΕ«cus hypothesis can be found for them too.) β Mnemosientje (t Β· c) 23:51, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
