LatinEdit

Etymology 1Edit

From Proto-Indo-European *h₂(e)rmos (“fitting”), from the root *h₂er- (“to join”). armentum is an independent derivation from the same root, as if from Proto-Indo-European *h₂er-mn̥-tom. Cognates include Sanskrit ऋत (ṛtá, “order; right; agreement etc.”) and अरम् (áram, “fitting”), Ancient Greek ἀραρίσκω (ararískō, “to fit together”) and Old Armenian արարի (arari, “I made”).

Semantic development was "that what is fitted together" → "tools" → "weapons". Also related to ars, artus, rītus.

SpanishEdit

PronunciationEdit

  • IPA(key): /ˈaɾma/, [ˈaɾ.ma]

Etymology 1Edit

From Old Spanish arma, from Late Latin arma (“weapon”), from Latin arma (“defensive arms”), from Proto-Indo-European *h₂(e)rmos (“fitting”), from the root *h₂er- (“to join”).

NounEdit

arma f (plural armas)

  1. weapon, arm
    El arma secreta ― the secret weapon
    Las armas secretas ― the secret weapons
Usage notesEdit
  • The feminine noun arma is like other feminine nouns starting with a stressed a sound in that it takes the definite article el (normally reserved for masculine nouns) in the singular when there is no intervening adjective:
el arma
  • However, if an adjective, even one that begins with a stressed a sound such as alta or ancha, intervenes between the article and the noun, the article reverts to la.
