Sahagún

== Spanish == === Etymology === Inherited from Latin sānctus Facundus, the original name of the town in Spain in honor of martyrs Facundus and Primitivus, from fācundus (“eloquent”). The name likely evolved by reduction as it was reported variously in Old Spanish and early modern Spanish as Safagunt (13th c.), Sant Fagunt (13-15th c.), Sant Fagund (13-15th c.), San Fagund (13-15th c.), Safagun (13-16th c.), and Sahagun (from 14th c.). Phonetically, the "h" is due to the loss of the sound /f/, and the "g" due to the common voicing and spirantization process. The surname is of toponymic origin. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /saaˈɡun/ [sa.aˈɣ̞ũn] Rhymes: -un Syllabification: Sa‧ha‧gún === Proper noun === Sahagún ?
