Zanfona / Zanfoña (f)

(with) definite article: la

bagpipe term also used for chordophones

Identical types: 7

NOT a bagpipe, but (despite the similarity of its name to Zampogna) terms used for a hurdy-gurdy; NB: In De Larramendi the instrument is called a Gaita de rueda, and in one of the more recent dictionaries even, rather oddly, just Gaita.
