[a. Sp., Pg. anchova, anchoa (It. acciuga, dial. anciova, ancioa, anciua), of disputed origin; Diez took the It. as the typical form, deriving it from a L. *apya for aphya, ad. Gr. ἀϕύη, name of some kind of small fish, with suffix -ug; Mahn considers the Sp., Pg., and It. dial. form to be an adoption of the Basque name anchoa, anchua, which he identifies with antzua adj. ‘dry,’ as if ‘dried fish.’]
