તુફંગ
Gujarati
editEtymology
editBorrowed from Classical Persian تفنگ (tufang), perhaps from Khorezmian Turkic, but more likely via Chagatai through the Mughal Empire, whose rulers were initially Chagatai-speaking, and established one of the three "gunpowder empires" alongside the Ottoman Empire and Safavid Iran. The word is of onomatopoeic origin, mimicking the sound of blowpipes used to kill birds.
