altonn

== Ladin == === Etymology === Borrowed from Latin autumnus (“autumn, fall”), of uncertain etymology. The Latin etymon is directly continued by Romanian toamnă, Aromanian toamnã (unless these reflect the variant in a-), Italian autono (Northern Italy, 15th c.), Romansh utuon (Engadine), Spanish otoño (→ Logudorese Sardinian atónzu, Campidanese atógniu), Portuguese outono, and via Vulgar Latin *atumnus by Friulian atum (“october”), Romansh atun (Sursilvan), aton (Surmiran). Provençal autoun (“autumn harvest”) could be Latin-influenced; French automne is likely, and Catalan autumne certain to be a borrowing from Latin. === Noun === altonn m (plural altonns) (Badiot) autumn, fall ==== Alternative forms ==== autonn (Gherdëina) uton (Fascian) ==== See also ==== seasons: sajons: ansciuda~aisciöda~aisciuda · instà~isté~istà · autonn~altonn~uton · inviern~invern [edit]
