reloj

reloj

1. plural of relo

Ultimately from Koine Greek ὡρολόγιον (hōrológion). Compare Greek ρολόι (rolói).

reloj m (Cyrillic spelling релој)

1. (regional) clock
2. (regional) watch, wristwatch

• sȃt

From Old Catalan relotge (1362) (Modern Catalan rellotge), from the older orollotge, from Latin hōrologium, from Ancient Greek ὡρολόγιον (hōrológion).[1] The current form of the word may partly be a back-formation of relojes, plural of obsolete reloje, which better conforms with the Catalan source and would explain the final "j", which is rare in Spanish.[2][3] Cognate with English horologe, French horloge, and Italian orologio
