Persian

Etymology

Reborrowed from Arabic قَبَاء (qabāʔ), from Middle Persian [script needed] (kpʾh /⁠kabāh⁠/, “garment, cloak”). Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *(s)kep- (“to split, cut”). Cognate to Central Kurdish کەوا (kewa, “long garment open in front”) and Khotanese [script needed] (khapa, “dress”). Perhaps cognate with Latin cappa (“cape”).
