rrepë

== Albanian == === Etymology === A term with multiple plausible etymologies. Either from Latin rāpum (“turnip”), Ancient Greek ῥάπυς (rhápus, “turnip”), or Proto-Slavic *rěpa (“turnip, beet”), or natively from Proto-Indo-European *(s)rā́ps. First attested as rrap, producing the contemporary form through plural metaphony and the Arberësh form rrapë. Due to the variant between e and a between standard and archaic, it supports a non-slavic origin. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /rɛpə/, /ˈrɛp/ Hyphenation: rre‧pë, rrepë === Noun === rrepë f (plural rrepa, definite rrepa, definite plural rrepat) turnip beet Synonym: panxhar ==== Declension ==== === References === === Further reading === “rrepë”, in FGJSH: Fjalor i gjuhës shqipe [Dictionary of the Albanian language] (in Albanian), 2006 FGJSSH: Fjalor i gjuhës së sotme shqipe [Dictionary of the modern Albanian language]‎[1], 1980
