garbanzos
ɡɑːrˈbɑːnzoʊz
The word 'garbanzos' comes from the Spanish language. It is derived from the Old Spanish 'garbanço', which in turn comes from the Old Provençal 'garban', ultimately from the Latin 'cicer', referring to the chickpea plant. The Latin word 'cicer' is believed to have originated from a pre-Italic or Mediterranean language.
