hasard
French[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Inherited from Middle French hasard, from Old French hasart, from Old Spanish azar, from Arabic اَلزَّهْر (az-zahr, “the dice”). Compare modern Spanish azar, Italian zara. The initial h- was originally purely graphic, but became aspirated by analogy with other non-Latin words. The final -d/-t is also excrescent, perhaps influenced by the suffix -ard.
Pronunciation[edit]
- (aspirated h) IPA(key): /a.zaʁ/
