Comments: Apparently < PSC *sɨ̄́nŏ + (diminutive) *-ḳV. Bouda (1948) compared Bsq zanko, zango + Lak s:an 'foreleg'. The commonly supposed derivation from Old Persian zanga ‘leg’ (REW, etc.) is historically and geographically fanciful. As can be seen, this word is deeply embedded in Bsq and apparently has a long history in the language. Vasconic > Spanish > Italian is much more plausible.
