longitud
/lonxiˈtud/ · B2 · noun · f
length
📏 Latin longitudo = long + -itud (like English -itude): long-ness, length
Longitud is built from the same root as English long, plus the -itud ending (English -itude), as in altitude or latitude. English longitude is a near twin, so the sound lon-gi-tud carries over directly.
