Mauritian Creole
editEtymology
editFrom French araignée. In French, the plural word araignées is commonly preceded by a word, such as aux, les or mes, whose final s or x is not pronounced except in front of vowels, where it is pronounced /z/. As a result, araignées was reanalyzed as having /z/ at the beginning.
