Description:

The modifier 'waca' means 'fried'. This is not an Old Common word, but the exact origin is not known. It is similar to a Malay word for frying pan, but the earliest attestations are not necessarily from southeast Asia. Today it's a very generally accepted word. The derived term wacan means frying or a fryer in a noun context and is a skurun verb meaning to cook by frying in a verb context.
