Latin

Etymology

From coquō (“to cook”) +‎ -tōrium.

Noun

*coctōrium[1] (Proto-Balkan-Romance)

  1. oven

Reconstruction notes
  • Latin -ct- usually yields Romanian -t- : Albanian -t- when not in coda of the stressed syllable, so the -pt- : -ft- must have been relevelled from other related terms, such as copt (“cooked”), as also happened in coptură (“that which is cooked”).[2]

Descendants
  • Aromanian: cuptor, cuftor, cãftor
  • Romanian: cuptor
  • → Albanian: koftor
