オランダ
Japanese
Etymology
From Portuguese Holanda (“Holland”)[1][2][3][4]. Note that some sources[1][3][4] give the erroneous Portuguese source spelling as Olanda (which is actually Italian), likely because the Portuguese h is silent. Compare Chinese 荷蘭 (“Netherlands; Holland”).
Proper noun
オランダ (rōmaji Oranda)
- the Netherlands
