Tosco, in turn, is also synonymous with Tuscan, an inhabitant of Tuscany in Italy. According to Bueno Tosco has origin in Vulgar Latin, being an allusion to the people who lived in the Etrusco district of Rome. During a certain period the Etruscans fought against Rome, however between years 295 a.c. and 300 a.c. thanks to a Roman law which designated all Italics as Romans, were absorbed by the Empire. To this day some aspects of their culture as their religion, language and ceramic techniques remain under investigation. The most well-known meaning of the word Tosco, as rude, sloppy, gross, ill-finished, comes from this historical context. The Etruscans were rivals and later were part of the Roman culture, as they were external to the Roman Empire, were considered a Barbarian people. It was not long before a word was created to designate them, in the Tosco case. Another origin is related to a lusitana slang, toscar considered not an adjective, but a verb. Its meaning is to see or to see in the distance, to perceive, to understand. Conjugating in the Present of the Indicative.
