Etymology

[edit]

From Proto-Bantu *-gàba.

Verb

[edit]

-aba

  1. to divide, to distribute

Inflection

[edit]

This noun needs an inflection-table template.

Spanish

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

Either inherited from Latin apage (go away), from Ancient Greek άπαγε (ápage), or alternatively borrowed from Arabic اِبْعَد (ibʕad, dialectally also abʕad), imperative of بَعِدَ (baʕida, to go away).[1] As both words have the same meaning and could both easily have yielded Spanish aba, it is hardly possible to decide.

Pronunciation

[edit]

Interjection

[edit]

¡aba!

  1. caution!, watch out!
