aran

See also: Aran, arán, árán, -aran, äran, āran, and åran

Basque

Aran bi.

Etymology

Of uncertain and disputed origin. Some relate this word to an Ibero-Romance source, testified also by Aragonese arañón, Catalan aranyó, Spanish arándano, all of which presuppose an unattested Vulgar Latin *agraniō. Others see a Celtic origin behind this term: compare Irish airne, Welsh eirin, which instead requires Proto-Celtic *agrinyā.

Pronunciation

• (standard) IPA^(key): /a.ɾan/

Noun

aran inan

1. plum (fruit)
