pota

In a boiling pot you won't find flies (Who boils his pot with chips makes his broth smell of smoke)

En pota que fierve nun toparás mosques (proverb)

Probably from Old French pot. Further etymology is obscure; perhaps from Proto-Germanic *puttaz (“pot”), from Proto-Indo-European *budn- (“a type of vessel”).
