botón
/boˈton/ · B1 · noun · m
button
🔘 From French bouton, from bouter = to push: a button is what you push
Old French bouter meant to push or thrust. A button is the thing you push, and a bud is the growth that pushes out of a stem, so both meanings come from the same root. It is also close to English button: drop the u and stress the end, bo-TÓN.
