rebabn.

Brit.

/rᵻˈbab/, U.S.

/rəˈbɑb/

Forms:

α. 1600s 1900s– rabeb, 1700s rebebb, 1700s 1900s– rubab, 1700s– rebab, 1800s raba'b, 1800s– rabab, 1900s– rabap, 1900s– rhabab, 1900s– robab.

β. 1800s rhababe, 1800s rubabah, 1800s– rababah, 1800s– rebaba, 1900s– rababa, 1900s– rebeba.

Origin: A borrowing from Arabic. Etymons: Arabic rabāb, rebāb, rabāba, rebāba.

Etymology: In α. forms < Arabic rabāb (colloquially also rebāb, rubāb, etc.), denoting any of various stringed instruments of Arab origin resembling the fiddle. Compare earlier rebec n., ribibe n., ribible n., and see discussion at these entries. The β. forms show occasional borrowings < Arabic rabāba (feminine; colloquially also rebāba, ribāba, etc.) in the same sense ( < rebāb, rabāb, etc. + -a, feminine ending).The vowel variation in the first syllable reflects dialectal variation in Arabic; the vowel variation in the second syllable probably reflects fronting of ā to ē. In later use probably partly reborrowed via Pashto rabāb, rubāb; compare also Persian rabāb, rubāb, rubāba in the same sense (all < Arabic).

Music.

Any of various stringed instruments of Arab origin, used esp. in North Africa, the Middle East, Central and South Asia, Malaysia, and Indonesia, typically a bowed fiddle with a long neck and a skin belly, or a similar plucked instrument.
