==Etymology==
− It is [[der|la|iuvencus|t=young bullock]], used as a feminine noun.^(OLD 2012)^(de Vaan 2008)^(Lewis & Short 1879) Wiktionary suggests that it may rather continue a [[itc-pro|*juwenkā]] beside the masculine.^(Wiktionary) De Vaan traces [[m|la|iuvencus]] to [[m|itc-pro|*juwnko-]] and [[ine-pro|*h₂iu-h₁n-ḱo-|t=young one, young animal]], a derivative of the word continued in [[m|la|iuvenis|t=young]]; the sequence ⟨-enc-⟩ instead of ⟨-inc-⟩ is unexpected, and he explains it either as a borrowing from Sabellic or as influence of [[m|la|iuvenis]] and [[m|la|iuventus]].^(de Vaan 2008) The plural [[xum|iuengar|t=young cows]] is the same word in Umbrian; further cognates are [[sga|óac|t=youth]], [[cy|ieuanc|t=young]], [[goh|jung|t=young]] and [[non|ungr|t=young]].^(de Vaan 2008)
