Noun

IPA: /ˈɑɹˌnaʊt/ [US] Forms: Arnauts [plural]
Etymology: From Turkish arnavut, from Ottoman Turkish آرناوود (arnavut, “an Albanian”). Entered Ottoman Turkish from the Byzantine Greek ethnonym Arvanitis (Αρβανίτης) after the syllable cluster van was rearranged through metathesis to nav giving the final Turkish forms as Arnavut and Arnaut. Meanwhile in Greek the name Arvanitis was derived from the original term Alvanitis (Άλβάνίτης) as a process of rhotacism Alv- into Arv-. In return Alvanitis stems from the name Alvanos (Άλβάνος) Albanian, from Ancient Greek Ἀλβανοί (Albanoí).
