Etymology

Inherited from Ottoman Turkish: ترفنده

In summary

Inherited from Ottoman Turkish ترفنده (türfende) or طرفانده (turfanda), further etymology is uncertain. Theories include;
* Related to Arabic طُرْفَة (ṭurfa, “novelty, rarity”),
* Derived from the name of the city Turfan, which is famous for high quality fresh fruits and vegetables,
* Derived from Persian تر (tar, “fresh; wet, humid”).
