Pronunciation[edit]

I suspect today few people say this word out loud. I had initially expected to find it deriving from a word with a pronunciation similar to /kjubro/, but looking at the etymology I wonder if the English spelling is actually meant to be trisyllabic, something like /'kʌbəro/. Compare Italian caberù from the same root. Soap 08:57, 10 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
