Etymology: Typically considered a borrowing from Vulgar Latin brocca (“fork, roasting-spit”), from Latin broccus, but with unusual devoicing of the anlaut. Compare French broche, Italian brocca. However, the devoicing may have taken place in Greek πρόκα (próka) (which see for details) by a common process of back-formation; in that case, the immediate source of the Albanian word would be Greek. This may also better explain the semantics.
