narangha

== Tagalog == === Alternative forms === naranha === Etymology === Borrowed from Spanish naranja, from Old Spanish naranja, borrowed from Arabic نَارَنْج (nāranj), borrowed from Classical Persian نَارَنْگ (nārang), borrowed from Sanskrit नारङ्ग (nāraṅga), possibly from Proto-Austroasiatic *ŋaːm. === Pronunciation === (Standard Tagalog) IPA(key): /naˈɾaŋha/ [n̪ɐˈɾaŋ.hɐ] Rhymes: -aŋha Syllabification: na‧rang‧ha === Noun === narangha (Baybayin spelling ᜈᜇᜅ᜔ᜑ) orange fruit, Citrus sinensis (dated, poetic) orange (color/colour) Synonyms: kahel, bulantubig ==== Usage notes ==== Using narangha to refer to the color may sound old and formal, and mostly used in poetic context. This would probably be the same for kahel, although it does not sound as old as narangha. Most natives would use the English word orange to refer to both the color and the fruit. Some natives may not even know that the Tagalog narangha or kahel exists. ==== Related terms ==== ==== See also ====
