FOCUM → fuego · feu · fuoco
The hearth became the fire itself. Its short stressed o broke apart in three sisters — ue in Spanish, uo in Italian, eu in French — but stayed whole in Portuguese fogo and in Romanian and Catalan foc; the k between vowels softened in Spanish and Portuguese, vanished in French, and held firm in Tuscan and Romanian.
