Line 3: ===Etymology=== Of {{uncertain\|la\|nocap=1}} origin. Perhaps from {{der\|la\|ine-pro\|gʰabʰl-\|\|fork, branch of tree}} due to the similarity of a hawk's claws to a pitchfork, from {{der\|la\|ine-pro\|gʰeh₁bʰ-}}; compare {{cog\|goh\|gabila}}, {{m\|goh\|gabala\|\|sparrow hawk}}.▼ One theory, preferred by De Vaan, derives the word from {{inh\|la\|ine-pro\|\|gowh₂-i-\|t=shouter}}, seemingly from either {{m\|ine-pro\|geH-\|t=to sing, cry}} or {{m\|ine-pro\|gewH-\|t=to call, cry out}}, and adduces as cognates {{cog\|sa\|गु\|t=to proclaim}}, {{cog\|grc\|γοάω\|t=to groan, weep}}, {{cog\|sla-pro\|gȍvorъ\|t=grumble, talk}}, and perhaps {{cog\|ang\|ċīeġan\|t=to call}}. He also mentions an alternative connection to {{m\|la\|gaius\|t=jaybird}}, via an independent {{onomatopoeia\|la\|nocap=1}} root in {{der\|la\|itc-pro\|\|gā̆-}}.<ref>{{R:itc:EDL\|page=256\|head=gā̆via}}</ref> ▲~~Perhaps~~Another theory derives the word from {{der\|la\|ine-pro\|gʰabʰl-\|\|t=fork, branch of tree}} (due to the similarity of a hawk's claws to a pitchfork), from {{~~der\|la~~m\|ine-pro\|gʰeh₁bʰ-\|t=to grab, take}}; compare {{cog\|goh\|gabila}}, {{m\|goh\|gabala\|\|t=sparrow hawk}}. ===Pronunciation=== Line 11 ⟶ 15: {{la-noun\|gāvia<1>}} # common [[gull]] and [[seagull]] (any kind of [[gull]], generically a kind of [[bird]]) ====Usage notes==== The identity of the ''gāvia'' in Classical Latin is uncertain, possibly the [[gull]] and the [[seagull]]. Modern taxonomic Latin applies the term {{~~m\|mul~~taxfmt\|Gavia\|genus}} to the [[loon]] ([[diver]]), but Classical Latin called this bird {{m\|la\|mergus}}. ====Declension==== Line 23 ⟶ 27: {{desc\|gl\|gaivota\|gloss=gull\|gueivota\|gloss2=gull\|avión\|gloss3=swallow}} * {{desc\|it\|gabbiano\|gloss=gull\|gavina\|gloss2=common gull}} * {{desc\|mt\|~~gawwija~~gawwi\|gloss=gull}} * {{desc\|pt\|gavião\|gloss=hawk\|gaivota\|gloss2=gull}} * {{desc\|ro\|gaie\|gloss=kite}} * {{desc\|scn\|gàipa\|gloss=~~Commons~~common gull\|gaipazza\|gloss2=yellow-legged gull\|gaipuni\|gloss3=yellow-legged gull}} * {{desc\|es\|gaviota\|gloss=gull\|~~avión~~gavilán\|gloss2=~~swallow~~sparrowhawk}} * {{desc\|mul\|''[[Gavia]]''\|gloss=loon, diver}} * {{desc\|aeb\|ڨاوية\|tr=gāwya\|gloss=seagull, black-headed gull}} ===References=== * {{R:L&S}} * {{R:Gaffiot}} <references /> [[Category:la:Birds]]
