Etymology

In western Galician, from Old Galician and Old Galician-Portuguese *sẽara; in eastern Galician from senra. Attested in local Medieval Latin documents since the 9th century as senara,[1] from Lua error in Module:parameters at line 360: Parameter 2 should be a valid language, etymology language or family code; the value "qfa-sub-ibe" is not valid. See WT:LOL, WT:LOL/E and WT:LOF. *senara, probably a compound of Celtic origin, from Proto-Celtic *senara (piece of land cultivated on the side), from *sen- (separation) (<< Proto-Indo-European *swé (self)) + *aryeti (to plow).[2]

Cognate with Portuguese senra, seara and Spanish serna.
