An alternative theory deriving the word from a supposed Proto-Italic *aku-(a)wi-lā-s (“swift little bird”), the first two components related to acus (“needle”) and avis (“bird”), the third a diminutive suffix *lā-, with similar formation to accipiter (“hawk”), is morphologically unlikely. Replaces Proto-Indo-European *h₃érō (“eagle”) due to taboo avoidance. === Pronunciation === (Classical Latin) IPA(key): [ˈa.kʷɪ.ɫa] (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): [ˈaː.kʷi.la] === Noun === aquila f (genitive aquilae); first declension eagle the standard (of an eagle) carried by a Roman legion the astronomical constellation Aquila kite ==== Declension ==== First-declension noun. ==== Derived terms ==== Aquila, the name aquilifer aquilīnus, whence Aquilīna, the female name ==== Descendants ==== === Adjective === aquila inflection of aquilus: nominative/vocative feminine singular nominative/accusative/vocative neuter plural === Adjective === aquilā ablative feminine singular of aquilus === References === === Further reading === “aquila”, in Charlton T.
