"ansa" meaning in Italian

See ansa in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈan.sa/ Forms: anse [plural]
Rhymes: -ansa Etymology: Probably from Proto-Germanic *ansijō (“loop, handle”) mixed with *asa, inherited from Latin ānsa (“handle”), perhaps also formally influenced by the Latin in the literary language. Cf. German Öse (“eyelet”), Romansch ansa, onsa (“eyelet”); contrast the inherited Sardinian asa (“handle”), Lombard asa (“handle”) and aseta (“loop”), Verona Venetan asa (“soffit”), Abruzzo Neapolitan asa (“door hinge”), Calabria Sicilian asa (“handle”), Portuguese asa (“wing; handle”), Galician asa (“handle”), Spanish asa (“handle”).
