Etymology

[edit]

Uncertain. At least two proposals exist:

  1. from Spanish asno or Latin asinus, although phonetically improbable;
  2. from hartz (bear) +‎ -to (diminutive suffix), phonetically impeccable, but semantically strange.

If the second is correct, then may be related to Aquitanian *asto, found in *Asto-ilunno.[1][2]

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • IPA(key): /as̺to/, [as̺.t̪o̞]
  • Audio:(file)
