фундук

Russian

Etymology

Borrowed from Crimean Tatar funduq, fındıq, from Ottoman Turkish فندق (funduq), from Arabic فُنْدُق (funduq), from Middle Persian pndk' (pondik), shortened from Ancient Greek Ποντικόν κάρυον (Pontikón káruon), from Ποντικόν (Pontikón, “of Pontus”) (a region in Turkey) + κάρυον (káruon, “nut”).

Initially (in the 19th century) denoting filbert (Corylus maxima syn. C. tubulosa) cultivated in subtropics of South Crimea, in the 20th century it began to be used interchangeably with Slavic лещи́на (leščína) (common hazel, Corylus avellana) and by the 21st century became more common.
