filìnija

• fulìnija (u- coloured variant)
• filinia, fulinia (eye dialect)

Possibly conflated with the theme of filu (“thread”) (giving sense 2), through an intermediate *fuliniga, ultimately from the metathesis of Latin fūlīginem (“soot, lampblack”). Compare Italian fuliggine, Spanish hollín. Cfr., for the morphology, russànija, sartànija and vurrànija.
