hermoso
/eɾˈmoso/ · A1 · adj
gorgeous, beautiful, handsome, lovely
🌹 From Latin formosus = full of form (forma); Spanish turned the f- into silent h-
Latin forma (shape) + -osus (full of) gave formosus, shapely. Old Spanish changed initial f- to h-, as in facere > hacer and filius > hijo. Portuguese kept the f: formoso. So hermoso literally means well-formed.
