A large bottle or jug for liquids, used in some Spanish and Portuguese-speaking countries.
From Spanish garrafa or Portuguese garrafa, possibly derived from Arabic garāfah. The word traveled from the Iberian Peninsula into English used in colonial and trade contexts.
The garrafa traveled from Arabic through Spain and Portugal and into English, carrying wines, oils, and goods across oceans—it's as much a voyager as the ships that carried it.
