kaffe
From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
See also: káffe
Etymology

Pronunciation
Noun
kaffe c (singular definite kaffen, not used in plural form)

Etymology
Latvian kafija seems unlikely as a mediator (unless the addition of -ija (as popularized by Juris Alunāns) is a more recent development, Karulis doesn't list kafija) thus possibly directly from German Kaffee.
Noun
kaffe
- coffee

Usage notes
Singular partitive with -zt (as in types 57 – kuțā and 58 – nētša) can be encountered, Viitso, however, indicates inflection type 56 – lilla.
