Tobacco, Cigarette
noun
タバコ is the Japanese version of the Portuguese word "tabaco." You probably won’t be shocked to learn that タバコ means tobacco or cigarette in English! Watch out for the first syllable, which is タ and not ト. タバコ can also be written in hiragana, and even in kanji, but katakana is the most common by far.
あ、タバコのにおいがする。
Oh, I can smell cigarette smoke.
タバコが中々やめられないんだ。
I've been struggling to quit smoking.
歩きタバコはよくないよ。
It's not good to smoke while walking.
