[KS] The Korean word for a Pipet

[Henny Savenije]

Hi to all,

I want to satisfy  my curiosity how the word Spoiteu came into 
Korean. I think the origin is the Dutch word spuit which means spout 
or injection needle, The Japanese word for eyedropper is Supoito, so 
that might be the origin, I just want to be sure
