carambolan.

Etymology: < Portuguese (and modern Latin) carambola. Several Portuguese writers of the 16th cent. state that this was the local name in Malabar: Molesworth has Mahratti karanbal; Forbes Watson has a Hindi name karmal, Sinhalese and Hindi kāma-ranga, Sanskrit karma-ranga. (Marsden has Malay karambil coco-nut.) Linnæus took the Portuguese name into botanical Latin.

The acid fruit (golden-yellow, ellipsoid, obscurely 10-ribbed) of a small East Indian tree Averrhoa Carambola, (family Oxalidaceæ); also the tree itself.
