editEtymology
editProbably from Proto-Indo-European *kwep- ~ *kʷap- (“to boil, to steam”) + *-rъ, cognate with Ancient Greek κύπειρον (kúpeiron), κύπερος (kúperos, “galingale”). Related to possibly Latin vapor.
The meaning of the Slavic term is likely aromatic one, attested also in Lithuanian kvapas (“aroma, odor”).
