From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

Catalan

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

Probably from Late Latin or Vulgar Latin regia, from Latin porta regia ("royal gate"), with later influence from Arabic رِيشَة (rīša, batten).[1] Alternative etymologies suggest Vulgar Latin *regla, from regula, although Catalan rella is the proper descendant of this word.
