[edit]Etymology
[edit]Possibly from Spanish anchova, anchoa, ultimately from Ligurian anciôa, from Vulgar Latin *apiuva, from Latin aphyē (“small fry”), from Ancient Greek ἀφύη (aphúē). The nasal consonant remains unexplained; however, this is an epenthesis, not originally attested, commonly popping up in many non-Greek borrowings. Compare English anchovy, for more.
