Etimologia (Anglès)

Manllevat de espanyol: almondiguilla

In summary

Borrowed from Spanish almondiguilla (“little meatball”), influenced by mondongo (“tripe”). From Andalusian Arabic البُنْدُقَة (al-bunduqa, “the hazelnut”), from Arabic بُنْدُق (bunduq, “hazelnut, pebble, bullet”), from Middle Persian pndk' (pondik, “hazelnut”), from Ancient Greek Ποντικόν κάρυον (Pontikón káruon, “Pontic nut”). Compare Spanish albóndiga and Portuguese almôndega.
