The English word Tibet, like the word for Tibet in most European languages, is derived from the Arabic word Tubbat. This word is derived via Persian from the Turkic word Töbäd (plural of Töbän), meaning "the heights". In Medieval Chinese, 吐蕃 (pronounced tufan or tubo), is derived from the same Turkic word. 吐蕃 was pronounced /t'o-bwǝn/ in Medieval times.
