Spanish

Etymology

From Old Spanish briza, thence of uncertain origin. Probably from Old French bise, bize, or from Vulgar Latin *bize, in which case likely of Germanic origin. Conversely, the French word has also been connected with Vulgar Latin *brevidia, whence probably Italian breva (periodic wind around the lakes of Lombardy blowing to the mountains), which is perhaps also the origin of Italian brivido (shiver).
