Etymology
Inherited from Old Galician-Portuguese pedreiro, from pedra (“rock”) + -eiro (“-eer”), or less likely from a Vulgar Latin *petrārius, from Latin petra (“rock”), from Ancient Greek πέτρα (pétra, “stone, rock”). Compare Spanish pedrero, Asturian pedreru, Catalan pedrer, Occitan peirièr, Romanian pietrar.
