pluma
Borrowed fromLatinplūma(“feather”) (Latinpl- normally becomesch- in inherited Portuguese); compare the semi-learnedOld Galician-Portuguesepruma. See alsochumaço, which was popularly inherited and underwent the usual sound changes.
FromLatinplūma(“feather”), taken as an early semi-learned term (Latinpl- normally becomesll- in inherited Spanish), or it may have maintained a conservative pronunciation as it would have been in use by mainly the upper class. A popular evolution of the word may have once existed in pre-literary Spanish, as evidenced by theOld Spanish derivativellumazo (comparePortuguesechumaço; see alsoSpanishchumacera, borrowed from a related Portuguese term).[1] Cognate toEnglishplume.
