largar
/laɾˈɡaɾ/ · A2 · verb
to let go
🪢 largar = give it length (largo, long): pay out the rope until it is let go
From largo, which first meant abundant or generous, then long. To largar a rope is to give it slack until it runs free, so the verb spread to releasing, letting go, and sending someone off. Same root as English large.
