Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Arabic word 'kharrūb', meaning the fruit of the carob tree. The term entered medieval Latin as 'carubia' and Old Italian as 'carubba', eventually passing into English via French in the late 16th century. Historically, the uniform weight of carob seeds served as the origin for the jeweler's unit of measurement, the carat.
