Etymology

From Old Spanish sabuco, from Latin sabūcus, variant of sambūcus. With the case of Spanish, it was influenced in Vulgar Latin by the suffix -uccus (hence the -c- instead of expected -g-)[1]. Compare Galician and Portuguese sabugo, Catalan saüc.

Noun

saúco m (plural saúcos)

  1. elder (tree)
