absurdo
/abˈsuɾdo/ · B1 · adj
absurd, preposterous, ludicrous, ridiculous
🤡 Same Latin root as English absurd: ab + surdus, deaf, so out of tune
From Latin absurdus, built from ab (away) + surdus (deaf, muffled). Something absurdo sounds wrong, like a note that is out of tune. Spanish keeps the shape almost identical: absurd + o.
