Cervēsa was by far the most common form in Classical Latin and is particularly well-represented in the Vindolanda tablets. In Late Latin it was marginalised in favour of cervēsia, cervisa, cervisia.[1] The variant vowel ⟨i⟩ for the second syllable seems to have been short, judging by the Romance outcomes, although the Italian cervigia would suggest an additional cervīsia if it is in fact native.[2] Cf. also the Old Spanish çervisa. |
