Definition
An alternative spelling of 'funduk' or 'foundouk,' a type of inn or caravanserai (trading inn) in Middle Eastern countries.
Etymology
From Arabic 'fundūq,' a commercial inn or warehouse where merchants and travelers stayed. Borrowed into European languages through trade contacts.
Kelly Says
A funduck was the Airbnb of the medieval Middle East—merchants would store goods, stay overnight, and trade with other travelers under one roof. These were the original co-working spaces!
