    Catalan

    [edit]

    Etymology 1

    [edit]

    Inherited from Old Catalan son, from Vulgar Latin sum, reduced form of Latin suum, accusative of suus, from Proto-Italic *sowos. Compare Occitan and French son.

    In unstressed position in Vulgar Latin suum, suam etc. were monosyllabic and regularly became son, sa etc. in Catalan. When stressed they were disyllabic and became seu, sua > seua etc.

    [edit]

    son m (feminine sa, masculine plural sos, feminine plural ses)

    1. his, her, its
    2. their
    3. your (alluding to vostè or vostès)
    Usage notes
    [edit]
    • The use of son and the other possessive determiners is mostly archaic in the majority of dialects, with articulated possessive pronouns (e.g. el meu) mostly being used in their stead. However, mon, ton, and son are still widely used before certain nouns referring to family members and some affective nouns, such as amic, casa, and vida. Which nouns actually find use with the possessive determiners depends greatly on the locale.

    The standard masculine plural form is sos, but sons can be found in some dialects.

    In Algherese, son and its forms mainly give reference to vostè.

    [edit]

    Inherited from Latin secundus (presumably through an earlier Old French form *seon; compare an attested Medieval Latin seonno, seonnum). Cognate with Catalan segó, Old Occitan segon. The meaning derives from the fact that bran results from a second sifting of flour. Doublet of second, a borrowing.

    Etymology 1

    [edit]

    From Latin sonus, probably through the intermediate of Old Occitan son (or influenced by it); alternatively, but less likely, regressively derived from the verb sonar (the more expected form is sueno that appeared in some Medieval texts).[1] Compare English sound and Portuguese som.
