Words That Rhyme With Mosque
Origin of Mosque
From Middle French mosquée, from Italian moschea, from Spanish mezquita. It has been suggested that the Spanish word derives from Arabic مَسْجِد (masjid, literally “place of prostration”)[1] (in which case it is a doublet of masjid), but this is phonologically difficult; so it has alternatively been suggested that the Spanish word is from Aramaic 𐡌𐡎𐡂𐡃𐡀 (msgdʾ /masgəḏā/, “the mosque”)
