Etymology

edit

Ultimately from Latin Padus, perhaps borrowed in this form from some Gallo-Italic variety to judge by the loss of /-d-/. On the other hand, should one assume that said loss occurred (irregularly) in Tuscany, the sound-changes from that point onward would be fairly straightforward: /ˈpa.o/ > /ˈpaw/ > /ˈpɔ/.
