choupana

== Galician == === Etymology === Unknown. Perhaps derived from Old French eschoppe (“booth, stall”) or from Middle English schoppe, from Proto-Germanic *skup- (“shed, stall”), and under the influence of cabana (“cabin”). Probably also related to Spanish chopa (“pilot's cabin aboard a boat”) and to Basque txopa (“stern”), themselves either from Latin puppis (“stern”) or borrowed from Galician-Portuguese. Cognate of Portuguese choupana, probably also related to the Spanish of the Canary isles chupenco (“a poor house”). === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /t͡ʃowˈpana̝/ === Noun === choupana f (plural choupanas) shack, hut, hovel Synonyms: cabana, casoupa, choza (nautical) pilot's seat in a boat ==== Derived terms ==== Choupana ==== Related terms ==== chopa (“small compartment aboard a boat”) choupela (“bed; jail”) chupeta (“small compartment aboard a boat”) === References === Antón Luís Santamarina Fernández, editor (2006–2013), “choupana”, in Dicionario de Dicionarios da lingua galega [Dictionary of Dictionaries of the Galician language] (in Galician), Santiago de Compostela: Instituto da Lingua Galega Antón Luís Santamarina Fernández, Ernesto Xosé González Seoane, María Álvarez de la Granja, editors (2003–2018), “choupana”, in Tesouro informatizado da lingua galega (in Galician), Santiago de Compostela: Instituto da Lingua Galega Rosario Álvarez Blanco, editor (2014–2024), “choupana”, in Tesouro do léxico patrimonial galego e portugués (in Galician), Santiago de Compostela: Instituto da Lingua Galega, →ISSN == Portuguese == === Etymology === Unknown. === Pronunciation === Rhymes: -ɐnɐ Hyphenation: chou‧pa‧na === Noun === choupana f (plural choupanas) shack, hut, hovel === Further reading === “choupana”, in Dicionário Aulete Digital (in Portuguese), Rio de Janeiro: Lexikon Editora Digital, 2008–2026 “choupana”, in Dicionário Priberam da Língua Portuguesa (in Portuguese), Lisbon: Priberam, 2008–2026
