hueso
/ˈw̝eso/ · A2 · noun · m
bone
🦴 Latin ossum (bone) → hueso: stressed o became ue, as in ossify, ossuary
Same root as English ossify and ossuary. Spanish turned the stressed Latin o into ue and added a silent h, so say it WEH-so. The hard core of a peach or olive is the fruit's bone, which is why hueso also means pit.
