IPA: /bif.tɛk/ Audio: Fr-bifteck.ogg Forms: biftecks [plural]
Etymology: 18th century, from English beefsteak with the cluster /fst/ reduced to /ft/ (or less often to /st/). The spelling was highly variable up into the 20th century until bifteck established itself, which is phonetic but adds the “un-French” -k, be it as a pseudo-English form or after the related steak (whose spelling remained unaltered). Etymology templates: {{bor|fr|en|beefsteak}} English beefsteak, {{m|fr||bifteck}} bifteck, {{m|fr||-k}} -k, {{m|fr|steak}} steak Head templates: {{fr-noun|m}} bifteck m (plural biftecks)
