It's sort of like the word "jinjifa" which comes from the princely Indian game "ganjifa" (http://www.harmonyindia.org/hportal/VirtualPageView.jsp?page_id=1163) or "jooti" (shoe) which I heard came from the time when the British were training Omani soldiers and asked them to wear their boots to military "duty". Another Arabized English word here in Kuwait is "midgar", which refers to the plastic part that lines the lower part of some of our cars - or the "mud guard."
