Etymology

From Old Galician and Old Portuguese ("chorando a saluçadas", 13th century, Cantigas de Santa Maria); from salouco (sob; hiccup) + -ar, from Vulgar Latin suggluttium (or from *sugglutiāre), from singultus, influenced by gluttīre; this form (containing a hard -c-) came under the influence of Galician choricar (to whimper) (cf. the variant salouzar, reflecting the original form more closely). Cognate with Portuguese soluçar, Spanish sollozar.[1]
