Where this word comes from

Probably from metathesis of Old Catalan *eroneta, from Vulgar Latin *hirundĭtta, a diminutive of Latin hirundō. The suffix may have also been an internal formation within early Catalan: compare the different suffixes used in nearby Romance cognates: Occitan ironda, randoleta, irondela, Spanish golondrina, Portuguese andorinha, French hirondelle, Italian rondine, cf. also Romanian rândunea, rândunică.
