Usage notes

Since versions of this food are widely consumed by diaspora communities in the English-speaking countries, they are more often known by names borrowed from the speaker's ethnic language. The term "cabbage roll" is typically used in monolingual English contexts. Partly this is because in most cuisines beet leaves (Eastern Europe) or grape/vine leaves (Mediterranean) are used just as often as cabbage in the recipe. Also, it reflects the large differences in fillings and sauces that are used in different national cuisines, which may motivate speakers to identify other groups' variations as a different dish.
