sfacciare
Appearance
Italian
[edit]Etymology
[edit]By surface analysis, s- + faccia + -are, perhaps corresponding to a Vulgar Latin *exfaciāre, from Latin faciēs (“face, visage”). Parallel to, or cognate with, Old French esfacier. (The semantics, however, suggest separate developments.) Less likely related to Galician esfachar.
Verb
