/ˈres/

Etymology (English)

Cognate with portugalî: rês

Cognate with maltayî: ras

In summary

Cognate with Portuguese rês. From Latin rēs (“thing, property”). The etymology Arabic رَأْس (raʔs, “head”, also of cattle) is no longer considered valid. While the latter is a perfect semantic match, the front vowel of the Romance form speaks against an Arabic origin because dialects generally maintain a back -a- in this word (compare Maltese ras, not *ries). For the sense evolution in the former derivation, compare English cattle.
