aceytuni

Spanish

Alternative forms

aceituní

Etymology

Probably via unattested Late Latin sētīnus (“silken [cloth]”), from Latin sētā.[1] Very frequently folk-etymologized to derive from Arabic زيتون‎ (“Zayton; olive”),[2] a calque of Quanzhou's former Chinese nickname 刺桐城 (“Tung Tree City”), after the trees which had been extensively planted there in the 10th century by Liu Congxiao,[3] but the derivation is unsupported.[1]

Noun

aceytuni

(obsolete) Synonym of raso: satin.
- 1641, Gerónimo de Blancas, Coronaciones de los serenissimos reyes de Aragon‎:
  […] e otra de aceytuni carmesi, e las bocas de las mangas con vnas trenzas de oro, anchas encima brosladas con aljofar […]
