جلابية
Arabic
Etymology
Possibly from Coptic ⲕⲟⲗⲟⲃⲉⲁ (kolobea, “robe, dress”). The corresponding root ج ل ب (j-l-b) is related to taking and carrying, thus it is hard to assume a derivation from it. But see also the root ج ل ب ب (j-l-b-b) from which there is جِلْبَاب (jilbāb, “robe”).
Noun
جَلَّابِيَّة • (gallābiyya) f (plural جَلَّابِيَّات (gallābiyyāt))
- (Egypt) galabia, djellaba (a loose, shirtlike garment commonly worn by Egyptian men)
