Meaning & usage
Old Tupi (Tupian language spoken as a lingua franca in colonial Brazil)
Where this word comes from
Learned borrowing from Old Tupi abá (“human, or Indigenous person”) + nhe'enga (“language”), literally “human language, or an Indigenous one”. There is no record of an Old Tupi term to refer to the language itself, so this composition is, ultimately, a calque of Paraguayan Guarani avañe'ẽ.
