In this video we trace how the Latin word cubitum “elbow” developed into Italian gomito and Portuguese cotovelo. We follow the sound changes step by step, looking at processes like intervocalic lenition, consonant voicing, metathesis, and morphological remodeling. Along the way, we compare why Italian preserves a shorter, reshaped form while Portuguese adopts a longer compound, revealing how different Romance languages can take very different paths from the same Latin starting point.
