garbanzo
English[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From Spanish garbanzo, initially borrowed as garvance in the 17th c. and anglicized as calavance (“chickpea; any kind of bean or pulse”).[1] The original garbanzo was re-established in the 19th c., primarily via American Spanish.[1] The Spanish garbanzo is from Old Spanish through Early Modern Spanish garbanço,[2] from Old Spanish arvanço, which is of uncertain origin, presumably influenced by garroba (“carob fruit”) and galbana (“small pea; a variety of pea”),[2][3] which is borrowed from Arabic جلبان (“peas”).[3] Other theories for the origin of garbanzo include Basque garbantzu [4]conmpounding garau (“seed”) + antzu (“dry”) and the Ancient Greek ἐρέβινθος (erébinthos).[2]
