Etymology

edit

From Vulgar Latin *platta, *plattus, borrowed from Ancient Greek πλατύς (platús, “wide”), because silver was often made into sheets. As with plato, this word may be semi-learned or avoided certain phonetic changes due to use by mainly the upper classes.[1] Compare Portuguese prata, Catalan plata. Displaced Old Spanish ariento from Latin argentum. Compare English plate.
