Etymology

From (deprecated template usage) [etyl] German Taifun. Possibly of Chinese origin, Mandarin 大风 (dàfēng, “big wind”), Cantonese 大風／大风 (daai⁶ fung¹, “big wind”), also similarly found in Arabic طُوفَان (ṭūfān), the latter from Ancient Greek τυφῶν (tuphôn). Given the location of typhoons as a Pacific Ocean phenomena, it is more likely it began east and moved west.
