αβούκα

Cappadocian Greek

Etymology

The origin is uncertain.

Perhaps borrowed from Armenian *հավուկ (*havuk), affectionate diminutive of Old Armenian հաւ (haw, “grandfather”) formed with -ուկ (-uk).[1][2] But note that this diminutive is not attested in Armenian, and that Old Armenian հաւ (haw) and its derivatives do not survive in Armenian dialects.

Alternatively, from Latin avus.[3][4]

Noun

αβούκα (avoúka)

grandfather
