tronco
/ˈtɾonko/ · B2 · noun · m
trunk
🪵🌳 tronco sounds like trunk-o; both come from Latin truncus, cut off
Latin truncus meant lopped or cut off: a tree with its branches removed. English trunk and Spanish tronco both come from it, and both cover a tree's trunk and the human torso. Truncate is from the same root.
