"ペスト" meaning in Japanese

See ペスト in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: [pe̞sɨ̥to̞] Forms: Pesuto [romanization]
Etymology: Borrowed from English Pest, from Hungarian Pest. A borrowing directly from Hungarian is extremely unlikely, as the Hungarian pronunciation of /pɛʃt/ would result in a Japanese rendering of ペシュト (peshuto) instead.

  1. Pest, the eastern half of the city of Budapest
