favorito
/faboˈɾito/ · A2 · adj
favorite/favourite
⭐ favorito = favor + -ito: the one that gets all your favor
A near-twin of English favorite, from Italian favorito, past participle of favorire (to favor), rooted in Latin favor. Spanish b/v sound alike, so it is said fa-bo-REE-to. Swap the English -ite ending for -ito (or -ita for feminine nouns).
