"buttana" meaning in Sicilian

See buttana in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /butˈta.na/ Forms: buttani [plural]
Etymology: Ultimately from Vulgar Latin *puttana, from Latin puta (“girl”), implying a formation from puta (“girl”) + -āna (relationship of position, possession, or origin suffix). The change from /p-/ to /b-/ is relatively unregular for Sicilian phonology (compare i.e. pusu~buzzu, “wrist”). For a similar change, compare Catalan barcella. The gemination is explained by the long vowel quantity of the desinence. The word Latin putta (“prostitute”) is attested in the sixth century (Gregory of Tours). The change of meaning from "girl" to "prostitute" is due to euphemism, a process that is well known to other periods and languages. Cognates are: Catalan putana, French putain, Italian puttana, Emilian putàna.

  "etymology_text": "Ultimately from Vulgar Latin *puttana, from Latin puta (“girl”), implying a formation from puta (“girl”) + -āna (relationship of position, possession, or origin suffix).\nThe change from /p-/ to /b-/ is relatively unregular for Sicilian phonology (compare i.e. pusu~buzzu, “wrist”). For a similar change, compare Catalan barcella.\nThe gemination is explained by the long vowel quantity of the desinence.\nThe word Latin putta (“prostitute”) is attested in the sixth century (Gregory of Tours). The change of meaning from \"girl\" to \"prostitute\" is due to euphemism, a process that is well known to other periods and languages. Cognates are: Catalan putana, French putain, Italian puttana, Emilian putàna.",
