Etymology

**Porto** is a loanword from Italian (and also used in Portuguese) meaning “port” or “harbor.” It ultimately derives from Latin *portus*, “harbor, trading place,” which entered Italian as *porto* and was borrowed into French in the 19th‑century maritime context. The word has not replaced the native French *port* but survives in specialized nautical or linguistic references.
