Etymology

Probably ultimately from Ancient Greek μανδραγόρας (mandragóras). Compare the Albanian cognate matërgonë. It may have arrived via a Vulgar Latin intermediate root *mandragona. Compare Spanish martagón. Alternatively, and less likely, from a substratum or Dacian source.

Noun

mătrăgună f (plural mătrăgune)

  1. belladonna (the plant Atropa belladonna)
