The word "coffie" is likely a misspelling or variant spelling of the word "coffee". The etymology of the word "coffee" can be traced back to the Arabic word "qahwah", which originally referred to a type of wine. This term was borrowed into Turkish as "kahve" and eventually made its way into other languages, including English, as "coffee". The spelling variations throughout history can be attributed to the transliteration of the Arabic term and regional language influences.
