==Etymology== The term originally came from [[Picard language]] or [[Walloon language]] words ''camberete'' or ''cambret'' for a small room (12th century). The first printed use of the word ''kaberet'' is found in a document from 1275 in [[Tournai]]. The term was used from the 13th century in [[Middle Dutch]] to mean an inexpensive inn or restaurant (''caberet'', ''cabret'').<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cnrtl.fr/etymologie/cabaret|title=Etymology of Cabaret|publisher=Ortolong: site of the Centre National des Resources Textuelles et Lexicales|language=fr|access-date=11 January 2019}}</ref> The word ''cambret'' is itself probably derived from an earlier form of ''chambrette'' or "little room", or from the Norman French ''chamber'' meaning "tavern", itself derived from the Late Latin word ''camera'' meaning an arched roof.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/cabaret|title=Cabaret definition and meaning {{!}} Collins English Dictionary|website=www.collinsdictionary.com|language=en|access-date=2018-08-15}}</ref>
