gañán

Etymology

Unknown, with mainly two Germanic and Arabic etymologies considered. The traditional early proposition was a descent from Latin ganeo (glutton, libertine), but this has been mostly discarded. The DRAE considers the ultimate source to be Arabic غَنَّام (ḡannām, shepherd). Coromines favours a derivation from Middle French gaignant (unskilled laborer, lout, ruffian, etc.).
