Latin

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

From Campānus, as the region was a centre for bronze production. Already in the first century CE Pliny speaks of the quality of aes campānum (Campanian bronze) and refers to vāsa campāna (Campanian vessels [or utensils]). First attested as a bare feminine noun in 510 CE.[1] Notably, bronze is a traditional material for making both bells and steelyards.

It has also been suggested that Campania was simply the location where St Paulinus introduced bells to Christian ceremony.[2][3]

The word has alternatively been linked, probably spuriously, to the Ancient Greek καπάνη (kapánē, felt helmet), owing to a supposed resemblance of shape,[4] and also to Thessalian variants of the Ancient Greek ἀπήνη (apḗnē) bearing the sense of 'cross-piece, middle-beam'.

Noun

[edit]

campāna f (genitive campānae); first declension (Late Latin, Medieval Latin)

  1. a large bell used in late classical or medieval church towers or steeples.
  2. a tower for such a bell, a campanile, belfry
  3. a steelyard (device for weighing)

Declension

[edit]

First-declension noun.

singular plural

genitive campānae campānārum
dative campānae campānīs
accusative campānam campānās
ablative campānā campānīs
