frango

• fragno

From Proto-Indo-European *bʰreg- (“to break”) with the nasal infix *-n-. De Vaan reconstructs PIE *bʰrnǵ-,^[1] but since descendants of this formation are not found in Celtic or Germanic, Schrijver argues it could be a Latin innovation and suggests the original vocalism can't be established.^[2]

• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /ˈfran.ɡo/, [ˈfräŋɡo]
