euskara

Etymology
Ostensibly from. It certainly contains the suffix, added to some rather obscure first element. This component may be connected to, the Latin name of an Aquitanian tribe documented by Pliny, although the initial diphthongs are different.

Alternatively, it has been pointed out that the historiographer Esteban de Garibay (1533-1599) wrote euskara as enusquera, with intervocalic -n-. Thus, the unknown component could also be interpreted as coming from 🇨🇬, whence the stem (or  in Biscayan) of Modern 🇨🇬. The entire compound would therefore mean “way of saying”.
