cezve

The name {{Lang|tr|cezve}} is of Turkish origin, where it is a borrowing from {{langx|ar|جِذوَة}} ({{Transliteration|ar|jadhwa}} or {{Transliteration|ar|jidhwa}}, meaning 'ember').

The {{Lang|tr|cezve}} is also known as an {{Lang|tr|ibrik}}, a Turkish word from Arabic {{lang|ar|إبريق}} ({{Transliteration|ar|ʿibrīq}}), from Aramaic {{lang|syc|ܐܖܪܝܩܐ}} ({{lang|syc-latn|ʾaḇrēqā}}), from early Modern Persian {{Transliteration|fa|*ābrēž}} (cf. Modern Persian {{Transliteration|fa|ābrēz}}), from Middle Persian {{Transliteration|pal|*āb-rēǰ}}, ultimately from Old Persian {{Transliteration|peo|*āp-}} 'water' + {{Transliteration|peo|*raiča-}} 'pour' (cf. Modern Persian and Middle Persian {{lang|fa|ریختن}} [{{Transliteration|fa|rêxtan}}]).{{cite book|last=Steingass|first=Francis Joseph|author-link=Francis Joseph Steingass|title=A Comprehensive Persian-English Dictionary: Including the Arabic Words and Phrases to be Met with in Persian Literature, Being, Johnson and Richardson's Persian, Arabic, and English Dictionary, Revised, Enlarged, and Entirely Reconstructed|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=knA9NptP7xsC|year=1992|publisher=Asian Educational Services|isbn=978-81-206-0670-8}} page 8.{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=cuEzDwAAQBAJ&dq=%C4%81br%C4%93z&pg=PA320|isbn = 9789004343047|title = Arabic in Context: Celebrating 400 years of Arabic at Leiden University|date = 6 June 2017|publisher = BRILL}}

In Modern Hebrew, it is called {{transliteration|he|finjan}} ({{lang|he|פינג'אן}}). Arabic coffee is commonly consumed by both Jews and Arabs in Israel,The complete travel guide for Israel, [https://books.google.com/books?id=YMouEQAAQBAJ&pg=PA209 p. 209] but in the Arab world, the word {{transliteration|ar|finjān}} {{langx|ar|فِنْجَان}} always refers to a cup for drinking coffee, not the pot in which it is prepared. The semantic shift in Hebrew may have originated when pre-1948 Jewish settlers, who did not speak fluent Arabic, misunderstood the equipment used by Arabs in Nazareth who invited them to drink coffee.{{cite news|url=https://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-3984253,00.html|lang=he|title=על כוס קפה|trans-title=On a cup of coffee|author=Miri Tzel Donati|work=Ynet|accessdate=2025-06-05|date=December 10, 2010}}
