Etymology
Deverbal from escombrar, from Vulgar Latin *excomborāre, from Proto-Celtic *comboros, derived from *kom- (“with”) + *bereti (“to bear”), or from Latin scōpa, crossed with the Celtic word or influenced by escombrar (compare Occitan escoba, Aragonese escoba and the Ibero-Romance variants). See: Latin Nouns '
scōpa'.
