escopeta
/eskoˈpeta/ · B2 · noun · f
shotgun
🔫 es-SCOPE-ta: a gun word with scope inside, though a shotgun needs none
It comes from Italian schioppetto, a little schioppo (firearm). That word traces back to Latin stloppus, the slapping pop sound of a shot. So escopeta is a little pop-gun. Stress falls on PE: es-co-PE-ta.
