historyador
Tagalog
Etymology
Borrowed from Spanish historiador (also analyzable as historya + -dor), but with the silent H pronounced as /h/, either due to English influence or due to the relation to Tagalog historya, which is from a desire to differentiate from similar words, as suggested by the Komisyon sa Wikang Filipino (KWF). Attested from the 1960s. Doublet of istoryador.
