/tʃælˈɡoʊzə/, 1900s– chilgorza.

Origin: A borrowing from Urdu. Etymon: Urdu čil-ġoza.

Etymology: < Urdu čil-ġoza chilgoza seed or cone (compare etymological note s.v. neoza n.) < Indo-Persian čil-ġōza pine cone (in modern Iranian Persian as čil-ġūza ) < čil- (see below) + gōz walnut, (with distinguishing word) nut, seed. With forms in chal- compare Pashto chalghoza . Compare slightly earlier neoza n.Derivation of the first element < Persian čil- forty (in compounds: compare čil-sāla forty years old), giving a meaning for the compound čil-ġōza of ‘having forty seeds’, is widely suggested, but this may be a folk etymology. The vernacular names for the tree that have been recorded include chírí (Sir George Watt: see etymological note s.v. neoza n.) and, for the related P. longifolia, chur (W. Roxburgh Flora Indica (1815)), chir, and chil.

More fully chilgoza pine. A Himalayan pine, Pinus gerardiana, valued for its edible seeds. Also (more fully chilgoza nut, chilgoza seed): the seed of this tree.
