"bacallà" meaning in Catalan

See bacallà in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [bə.kəˈʎa] [Balearic, Central], [ba.kaˈʎa] [Valencian] Forms: bacallans [plural]
Rhymes: -a Etymology: From Dutch bakaliaw, of uncertain origin. Possibly from Latin baculum (“stick, staff”), referring to the way cod were split and dried on wooden sticks. If the element *bak- is a metathesis of *kab- (compare French cabillaud and German Kabeljau from Dutch kabeljauw), then the original form of the word could have been *cabalao, maybe meaning "large-headed fish". First attested in 1640. Cognate to Italian baccalà, Portuguese bacalhau, Spanish bacalao.
