IPA: /maˈɡyt/

Dal germanico magat: ragazzo. Secondo un'altra ipotesi, probabilmente paraetimologica, il termine nasce durante la costruzione del Duomo di Milano dall'abbreviazione del latinpo magister carpentarius (maestro carpentiere), in mag. (gister) ut, termine poi passato a indicare l'aiuto muratore.
