Etymology

First attested in the Vindolanda Tablets.[1] Before this was discovered, the Romance forms were assumed to have derived from Latin tŏrta f (“twisted”), which is also found as a noun in Late Latin (referring to a type of pastry). That this required assuming an unusual development of Latin ŏ was recognized even then.[2]

Pronunciation
  • (Classical) IPA(key): /ˈtur.ta/, [ˈt̪ʊrt̪ä]

Noun

turta f (genitive turtae); first declension

  1. type of pastry
