súp

See also: sup, SUP, 'sup, sup., and Sup.

Vietnamese

Etymology

A common misspelling of xúp, given rise to either by the fact that northern Vietnamese dialects have an x-s merger, or that people from southern Vietnam have certain degrees of hyperforeignism when attempting to imitate the spelling of the source word, the French soupe. Hyperforeignism is not unusual in Vietnam, especially in the South where English spellings have been increasingly adopted over transcriptions.

Noun

súp

  1. Misspelling of xúp.
