pallissa

• IPA^(key): (Central, Balearic) [pəˈʎi.sə]
• IPA^(key): (Valencia) [paˈʎi.sa]

Inherited from Old Catalan palissa (“fence, palisade”) (especially in the context of jousting), either borrowed from Spanish paliza^[1] or an indigenous formation,^[2] in either case etymologically Latin pālus (“stake”) and perhaps -icea. The change from /l/ to /ʎ/ is likely by analogy with lliça or vall.
