Etymology

Borrowed from Arabic زَنْبَق (zanbaq), from Middle Persian [script needed] (cmbk' /⁠čambak⁠/) (whence Old Armenian ճանբակ (čanbak)), related to Urdu چمپا / Hindi चंपा (campā), Punjabi چمپا (čampā, “jasmine in the broad sense”), which has been borrowed into Persian as چمپا (čampâ, “jasmine”). All via Sanskrit चम्पक (campaka, “champac”) from Malay cempaka, Javanese cĕmpaka or another Malayo-Polynesian language (as reflected in Sundanese campaka, Balinese campaka, Minangkabau campagǒ, Madurese compaka, Makasar campaga, Buginese cepaga, Tombulu sampaka).
