Pronounced as (IPA)

/taː.buːt/

From earlier تَوَبُوت (tawabūt) or تَاوْبُوَّة (tāwbuwwa), from Classical Syriac ܬܝܒܘܬܐ (tēḇūṯā) or Ge'ez ታቦት (tabot). Cognate with Hebrew תיבה (tevá). Ultimately from a merger of Egyptian DbA-b-t:pr (ḏbꜣt, “sarcophagus, coffin”) and d-b-t:xt (dbt, “chest, box”); compare Demotic tbyt (“sarcophagus, shrine, chest”), dbt, and tbt (“chest”) and Coptic ⲧⲁⲓⲃⲉ (taibe, “chest, coffin”).
