"mezquita" meaning in Spanish

See mezquita in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /meθˈkita/ [Spain], [meθˈki.t̪a] [Spain], /mesˈkita/ [Latin-America], [mesˈki.t̪a] [Latin-America] Forms: mezquitas [plural]
Rhymes: -ita Etymology: Usually claimed as being from Arabic مَسْجِد (masjid, “mosque”), which is however phonologically difficult, so Al-Jallad (2017) suggests that it is a better match for Aramaic 𐡌𐡎𐡂𐡃𐡀 (msgdʾ /⁠masgəḏā⁠/, “the mosque”), which he also posits as the source of Byzantine Greek μασγίδα (masgída) and Central Atlas Tamazight ⵜⴰⵎⴻⵣⴳⵉⴷⴰ (tamezgida), which would have been borrowed directly due to closer contact of Romance speakers with Aramaic-speaking Christians or due to the Aramaic form being passed on in colloquial Arabic still in foreign shape.
