Chibouque

/tʃɪˈbuːk/ noun

Definition

An alternative spelling of chibouk; a long-stemmed Middle Eastern tobacco pipe.

Etymology

French variant spelling of 'chibouk' (from Turkish 'çubuk'). European languages often had multiple accepted spellings for the same Turkish word during the colonial and early modern period.

Kelly Says

The word 'chibouque' shows how French borrowed Ottoman culture—French spelling conventions turned the Turkish 'çubuk' into something that looked more French with the '-que' ending. Language reveals which culture was doing the borrowing!
