- (Logudorese) bird (in general), especially eagles or other birds of prey

According to Max Leopold Wagner, ae means 'bird' in a general, almost collective, sense, while a specific bird is usually called a puzone. The term also has a tendency to mean 'eagle' in central dialects, and by extension also 'vulture' and other birds of prey.
