Lake Garda
Lake Garda or Benaco is the largest Italian lake, with an area of ​​approximately 370 km² (third in depth after Como and Maggiore). Hinge between three regions, Lombardy (province of Brescia), Veneto (province of Verona), Trentino-Alto Adige (province of Trento), it is placed in parallel with the Adige, from which it is divided by the Monte Baldo massif. To the north it is narrow funnel while in the south it widens, surrounded by morainic hills that make the landscape sweeter. The lake is an important tourist destination and is visited by millions of people every year. In Roman times the lake was known as Benacus and by some it was revered as god Benacus, personification of the lake itself, sometimes associated with the cult of the god Neptune. Today it is better known as Lake Garda, a toponym attested since the Middle Ages and of Germanic origin, deriving from that of the town of the same name on the Veronese side of the lake, which, together with another famous lake town, Gardone Riviera, and others less known, such as Gàrdola, Gardoncino, Gardoni, Guàrdola and Le Garde, testifies to the Germanic presence that goes from the VI to the VIII century, in particular the Lombard one. The toponym Garda, with which the lake is already called in some documents of the eighth century, is the evolution of the Germanic voice warda, or “place of guard” or “place of observation”. The classic toponym of the lake, or Benācus lacus (Benaco), is almost certainly of Celtic origin, therefore prior to the Roman dominion, and should derive from bennacus, comparable with the Irish bennach, and would mean “horned”, or by the many promontories. The translation “cornuto” is also interpreted in reference to the Sirmione peninsula. The Latin voice of Benaco is attested as Benācus, -i and therefore presupposes a flat accent (Benàco): the Italian version of the tonic accent remains faithful to the Latin accent, therefore it must be pronounced with the accent on the “a”. The inhabitants of the lake, especially those of the Veronese shore, pronounce the name Benaco with the accent on the “e”, or Bènaco. The reason why the natives of the lake areas tend to use the version with the slippery accent of the name remains unclear.
