rondon.

Brit.

/ˈrɒndəʊ/, U.S.

/ˈrɑnˌdoʊ/

Origin: A borrowing from Italian. Etymon: Italian rondò.

Etymology: < Italian rondò piece of music with a formal structure in which the leading theme recurs between sections and then returns to complete the composition (a1801) < French rondeau rondeau n. Compare French rondo (1806; < Italian).Sense 2, which is not recorded in dictionaries of French, Italian, Spanish, or Portuguese, may show a different word. Although quot. 1821 at sense 2 might suggest a Portuguese etymon, no likely etymon appears to exist in Portuguese (Brazilian Portuguese ronda , apparently a specific use of ronda round n.¹, denotes a gambling game played with a pack of cards).

1. Music. A piece of music with a formal structure in which the leading theme recurs between sections and then returns to complete the composition: often as the final movement of a concerto, sonata, etc. Cf. rondeau n. 2.
