Inflections: Plural pizzas, pizze Brit.

Origin: A borrowing from Italian. Etymon: Italian pizza.

Etymology: < Italian regional (Naples) pizza (1531), of uncertain origin, apparently originally from the region of Abruzzo and its vicinity; perhaps < an unattested Langobardic cognate of Old High German bizzo bite, piece bitten off, morsel, lump, cake made of flour (see bit n.² and adj.²). Compare post-classical Latin piza , pizza flat bread (from 997 in central Italian sources; also in 14th cent. as pissa ), flat bread, apparently with a topping of cheese (14th cent. in central Italian sources). Compare pitta n.²A derivation ultimately < ancient Greek πλακοῦς flat cake (see placenta n.) has also been suggested, but is unlikely.

A savoury dish of Italian origin, consisting of a flat, usually round base of dough, baked with a topping of tomatoes, cheese, and any of various other ingredients, such as meat, anchovies, or olives.Although tomatoes and cheese are the most typical toppings, on some kinds of pizza one or both of these may be absent; see e.g. white pizza n. at white adj. and n. Compounds 1f, and cf. also quot. 1970.
