Zaragoza

English

Alternative forms

Saragossa

Etymology

Borrowed from Spanish Zaragoza, from Andalusian Arabic سَرَقُسْطَة‎ (saraqusṭa), from Latin Caesaraugusta, named after Roman Emperor Augustus. Note the Andalusian etymon vis-a-vis Arabic قَيْصَر‎ (qayṣar); the initial palatized consonant and other features suggests a borrowing from a late Vulgar Latin form dating to the Moorish invasion of Visigothic Spain. Doublet of Caesaraugusta.
