atârna

Romanian

Etymology

Either from târn (“a large broom made from brier used to sweep streets”), itself of Slavic origin, or from Latin tornāre (“to turn”) with suffix ad-. However, it would be an irregular phonetic evolution in this case (cf. turna, înturna).

Pronunciation

  • (file)

Verb

a atârna (third-person singular present atârnă, past participle atârnat) 1st conj.
