https://www.bilketa.eus/ark:/27020/ASJU-8333Zuazo, Koldo (1956-....)ASJU, 83331992-04-02This short note deals with the possible etymology of the word azaga, considered an hapax and found in Refranes y Sentencias in 1596. In this collection of proverbs, it was translated into Spanish as 'postrimería', which has led to the supposition of a romanic (zaga), and ultimately arabic origin. Here, on the contrary, a different reading is proposed: atzaga, with an affricated sibilant, a word noted in Oñati by K. lzagirre (1970), meaning 'a pole placed between two trees on which sheep can scratch themselves'.https://ojs.ehu.eus/index.php/ASJU/article/view/8333/7495https://ojs.ehu.eus/index.php/ASJU/article/view/8333vignette : https://www.bilketa.eus/in/rest/Thumb/image?id=ark:/27020/ASJU-8333&mat=articleNumbaqCopyright (c) 2015 Anuario del Seminario de Filología Vasca "Julio de Urquijo"Azaga = Postrimería?
