Etymology
[edit]Uncertain. Apparently of Arabic origin. Italian academia, in the hope of attributing a source, has over time accumulated unproven hypotheses found in Ancient Greek σκῐερός (skierós, “shady, dark coloured”) (in reference to the color of the lava stone) and a not better explained derivation from Latin flāgrō (“I burn”) (cfr. ciàguru for this latter).
Pronunciation
[edit]Noun
[edit]sciara f (plural sciari)
- (geology) A mound of magmatic scoriae formed along lava flows.
