History
Borrowed from Japanese ポン酢 (ponzu), in turn from Dutch pons (“punch”, obsolete, superseded by punch), from English punch, ultimately from Sanskrit पञ्च (páñca, “five”). Doublet of cinque, fin (“five currency units”), finnuf, five, pimp (“five”), punch (“beverage”), and sengi (“currency”); related to Pompeii.
