Etymology

From Ottoman Turkish قارپوز‎ (qārpūz, “melon”), from Persian خربز‎ (xarboz, “melon”) and likely influenced by Greek καρπός (karpós, “fruit, grain”), both from Ancient Greek καρπός (karpós, “fruit, grain, produce”), from Proto-Indo-European *kerp- (“pluck, harvest”), from *(s)ker- (“to cut”). Cognate with English harvest.
