Etymology
The Arabic word is a direct loan from the Italian "pizza." It entered Arabic in the modern era along with the dish itself, spread by restaurants and global food culture. The Italian word's deeper origin is debated, with theories linking it to a Greek or Germanic source. Arabic kept the form close to the original sound.
