Etymology The word avocado comes from the Spanish aguacate, which derives from the Nahuatl (Mexican) word áhuacat/ [a: wakat],[41] which goes back to the proto-Aztecan *pa:wa.[42]In Molina's Nahuatl dictionary "auacat" is given also as the translation for compaón "testicle" [43] and this has been taken up in popular culture where a frequent claim is that testicle was the word's original meaning. This is not the case, as the original meaning can be reconstructed as "avocado" — rather the word seems to have been used in Nahuatl as a euphemism for "testicle"[44][45][46]
