hechado
thrown


Etymology
The Spanish word 'hechado' (which is actually an incorrect spelling of 'echado') comes from the Spanish verb 'echar' meaning 'to throw' or 'cast' plus the past participle suffix '-ado'. The verb 'echar' itself derives from Latin 'iactare' meaning 'to throw repeatedly', which is a frequentative form of Latin 'iacere' meaning 'to throw'. The initial 'h' in 'hechado' is a common spelling error since 'h' is silent in Spanish, and the correct form is 'echado'.
