morango

Etymology

Uncertain. Either from Vulgar Latin *moranicum, from Latin morum (mulberry) or from amora (bramble; blackberry) +‎ -ango. Compare Galician amorodo, amorogo (strawberry). Displaced Latin fragum, which, if it followed the same development in other romance language, probably would have yielded either *fraga or *freisa.
