Spanish
[edit]Pronunciation
[edit]Etymology 1
[edit]Inherited from Old Spanish clavo, from Latin clāvus. The conservation of Latin /kl-/ is irregular (normally the result is /ʎ/, but cf. claro), which might imply a degree of Latin influence. Still, it is difficult to regard such a mundane term as learned or even semi-learned.[1] First attested in the twelfth century. Compare Portuguese cravo.
Noun
[edit]clavo m (plural clavos)
- nail, spike
- clove
- Synonym: clavo de olor
