"praz" meaning in Romanian

See praz in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈpraz/ Audio: LL-Q7913 (ron)-Andreea Teodoraa-praz.wav
Rhymes: -az Etymology: A Slavic borrowing replacing the inherited now uncommon por / pur. Praz being from either Old Church Slavonic празъ (prazŭ) or Bulgarian праз (praz) (from Proto-Slavic *prazъ) itself from Greek, or possibly directly from late Byzantine Greek πράσον (práson) (compare Bulgarian праз (praz), also Aromanian prash); compare also phonetic development of s > z in ovăz). Less likely from a Vulgar Latin root *prasum, from ultimately the same Ancient Greek root.
