faj
Albanian
Etymology 1
A formation from fal, or from Proto-Indo-European *spel 'to break'.Another hypothesis claims it comes from Latin fallo (“deceive”),but Albanian already has taken the loanword fallco,making it unlikely.
Etymology 2
From Proto-Albanian *spanja, related to Germanic *spannjan to tighten, with a secondary expressive gemination, to be compared with Old Norse spenna (“to tighten”)[1].
