Name Origin
The term 'Cavaquinho' refers to a small string instrument similar to a ukulele, originating from Portugal and widely used in Brazilian and Portuguese music. The name is derived from Portuguese, where it is a diminutive form of 'cavaço,' related to 'cava,' meaning 'cellar' or 'cave,' possibly referring to the instrument's small size.
