Kafana (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Serbia ), kafeana (Macedonia), kavana (Croatia, ) are terms used in the former Yugoslav countries for a distinct type of local bistro which primarily serves alcoholic beverages and coffee, and often also light snacks and other food. Some kafane feature live music performances. The concept of a social gathering place for men to drink alcoholic beverages and coffee originated in Ottoman Turkey and spread to Southeast Europe during Ottoman rule, further evolving into the contemporary kafana. ==Nomenclature and etymology== This distinct type of establishment is known by several slightly differing names depending on country and language: * Serbian: кафана (''kafana''), pl. кафане (''kafane'') * Macedonian: кафеана (''kafeana''), pl. кафеани (''kafeani'') * Croatian: kavana, pl. kavane * Bosnian: kafana/kahvana pl. kafane/kahvane * Albanian: kafene/kafehane The word itself, irrespective of regional differences, is derived from the Turkish ''kahvehane'' ("coffeehouse") which is in turn derived from the Persian term ''qahveh-khaneh'' (a compound of the Arabic ''qahve'' () and Persian ''khane'' ()). In the Republic of Macedonia, ''kafeana'' is sometimes confused with the more traditional ''meana'', while the variant ''kafana'' (adopted from commercial Serbian folk-songs and popularized by domestic artists) may be used for the establishment described in this article; however, both terms are used interchangeably by some. Nowadays in Serbia, the term ''kafana'' is similarly used describe any informal eatery serving traditional cuisine, as well as some other classical kafana dishes like Wiener schnitzel. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kafana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
