плужек
Bulgarian
Etymology
From плъж (plǎž, “slug”) (dialectal) + -ек (-ek). The ungrammatical -у- is probably due to convergence with colloquial Bulgarian плю́гам (pljúgam, “to taint, to blight, to get wasted”) (of expressive origin).
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): [ˈpɫuʒek]
Alternative forms
- плъ́жек (plǎ́žek), плъ́жец (plǎ́žec), плъ́жак (plǎ́žak)
