Per Vasmer and Sławski: a semantic shift from the diminutive due to the similarity in shape. Per Stachowski: finding the above explanation semantically dubious, he instead proposes an Oriental borrowing, pointing out that a similar dish, aside from Eastern Europe, is known in the Levant and Central Asia. He points to Persian کلم (kalam, “cabbage”) or کلم پیچ (kalam pič, “cabbage roll”) – possibly through a Turkic language or Old Armenian կաղամբ (kałamb, “cabbage”) as possible sources, but remains reserved. The word would have later been altered by folk etymology. ==== Noun ==== gołąbek m inan (diminutive gołąbeczek) piece of gołąbki (in the plural) gołąbki, cabbage roll (traditional Polish dish) ===== Declension ===== === Etymology 3 === See the etymology of the corresponding lemma form. ==== Noun ==== gołąbek f genitive plural of gołąbka === References === === Further reading === gołąbek in Wielki słownik języka polskiego, Instytut Języka Polskiego PAN gołąbek in Polish dictionaries at PWN Hieronim Łopaciński (1892), “gołąbki”, in “Przyczynki do nowego słownika języka polskiego (słownik wyrazów ludowych z Lubelskiego i innych okolic Królestwa Polskiego)”, in Prace Filologiczne (in Polish), volume 4, Warsaw: skł. gł. w Księgarni E.
