Etymology

Borrowed from Italian pizza,[1][2][3] appears to be a transliteration (based on the original Italian spelling) rather than a transcription (which is ピッツァ (pittsa), based on the Italian pronunciation)

Pronunciation

Noun

ピザ (rōmaji piza)

  1. pizza
    ピザ ()
    piza-ya

Usage notes

  • This form with the /z/ pronunciation is much more common than the ピッツァ (pittsa) form with the /t͡s/ pronunciation.
