Latin[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Substantivization of coquīnārius (“kitchen”, adjective), with /kʷ/ → /k/ by analogy with the same change in coquus (“cook”, noun) and related forms.
Pronunciation[edit]
Noun[edit]
*coquīnārium m (Proto-Italo-Western-Romance)
Declension[edit]
singular | plural | |
---|---|---|
nominative | */kociˈnarʲos/ | */kociˈnarʲi/ |
oblique | */kociˈnarʲu/ | */kociˈnarʲos/ |
Reconstruction notes[edit]
Possibly a spurious reconstruction, considering that an original /i/ would be expected to reduce in this position. In that case, the descendants below simply reflect later formations based on descendants of cocīnāre (“cook”, verb). Alternatively, the reduction of /i/ was prevented by analogical influence from the same verb.
