Tlie word “cigar” is of Spanish ori ^
gin. It is derived from “cigarra,” thej
Spanish name for giwsshopper.. When:
ilhe Spaniards first introdiie«Kl tobacco |
tinto Spain’ from the island of Cuba,|
they cultivsted the plant in their gar
dens w'hich in-Spanish are called ”ci-
rarrals.” The graaskiopper was very
common in Spain and ctgarral meant
the place where the grasshopper
sings. From cigarra came the mo^m
word cigar. \
