"Jibbit" meaning in German

See Jibbit in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈd͡ʒɪbɪt/, /ˈʒɪbɪt/
Etymology: Unknown. Heavily popularized through the Berlin hip-hop and rap subculture in the mid-2010s. Possible explanations include: * an extension of the English slang term jib; this however is known as “crystal meth”; only a single person records the meaning “marijuana” in 2003 Ann Arbor, Michigan, in the Online Slang Dictionary, so there is no sensible causal relation. * from Arabic جَيْب (jayb, “pocket, pouch”) (in dialects جِيب (jīb)) referring to packaged goods or hidden stash. * or from Joint with some other word such as English tip, German Schnitt, Zippo or a pseudo-suffix -it or -et. This would explain spelling /d͡ʒ/ as J, which is marked as English.
