"אבוב" meaning in Hebrew

See אבוב in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /(ʔ)aˈbuv/ [Modern-Israeli-Hebrew] Audio: LL-Q9288 (heb)-YaronSh-אבוב.wav Forms: אַבּוּב [canonical], אִיבּוּב [canonical], abúv [romanization], ibúv [romanization], אַבּוּבִים [indefinite, plural], אַבּוּב־ [construct, singular]
Etymology: Most likely a loan word from Akkadian 𒄀𒁍 (ebbūbum, “flute”), which probably derived from the root n-b-b (to be hollow). Compare Arabic أُنْبُوب (ʔunbūb, “pipe, tube”). The Modern Hebrew sense is a phono-semantic matching of English oboe.
