editEtymology
editFrom Old Galician-Portuguese carvallo, also attested in local Medieval Latin document since the 8th century; from carba + -allo. Further etymology uncertain: from a substrate language, possibly from Proto-Indo-European *(s)kr̥-wós (compare Latin curvus, "bent").[1] Cognate with Portuguese carvalho and Asturian carbayu.
