  • rŏtātŏr one who turns a thing round in a circle, a whirler round
  • roto
  1. to whirl round
  2. to revolve, to rotate

It seems that only turbo expresses the idea of rotation around body's own axis - what is meant by spin, whereas others stress motion around the circle - that is around an axis outside the body.
