• “aba”, in Slovníkový portál Jazykovedného ústavu Ľ. Štúra SAV [Dictionary portal of the Ľ. Štúr Institute of Linguistics, Slovak Academy of Science] (in Slovak), https://slovnik.juls.savba.sk, 2003–2024

From Proto-Bantu *-gàba.

-aba

1. to divide, to distribute

This noun needs an inflection-table template.

Either inherited from Latin apage (“go away”), from Ancient Greek άπαγε (ápage), or alternatively borrowed from Arabic اِبْعَد (ibʕad, dialectally also abʕad), imperative of بَعِدَ (baʕida, “to go away”).^[1] As both words have the same meaning and could both easily have yielded Spanish aba, it is hardly possible to decide.
