afari

Basque

Alternative forms

Etymology

Possibly from Proto-Basque *gab(H)ali, analyzable as gau (“night”) +‎ -ari (meal suffix). The variant abari, today found only in Souletin, was once attested in Navarrese medieval documents, and therefore is regarded as the most ancient.[1][2] The phonological development of the labial segment of this word is as follows: /*b, *(h)w/ > /*ɸ/ > /f/. Other proposals, including Schuchardt's Vulgar Latin *apparium, are generally rejected.[1][3]
