Chuppahs

/ˈxʊpəz/ noun

Definition

The plural form of chuppah; multiple canopies used in Jewish wedding ceremonies.

Etymology

English plural of the Hebrew chuppah (חוּפָּה), formed by adding the standard English plural suffix -s to the singular noun.

Kelly Says

When a Hebrew word enters English, speakers naturally add English plurals—so chuppahs becomes the standard way to refer to multiple canopies in English wedding contexts, showing how languages blend together when cultures interact.
