Etymology: From Early Medieval Latin traugus, a "barbarous" Latin word first attested in the Ripuarian Law, probably related to torus (“round hill”). Thought to be of Celtic, specifically Gaulish, origin. However, others have suggested a borrowing from Ancient Greek τρῦπα (trûpa, “hole”), instead. Related to Catalan and Occitan trauc.
