Etymology

Already attested as Latin dorna (container, concave) in local 10th-century Latin charters. From Lua error in Module:parameters at line 159: 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., from Proto-Celtic *durnos (fist, hand) (compare Breton dorn, Irish dorn). The word could have been first a unit of length, later becoming a unit of volume and a container,[1] and later a ship, or either it was a reference to the concavity of the hand. Cognate with Spanish duerna, Occitan dorna and French dorne.

Pronunciation

Noun

dorna f (plural dornas)
