Both donair and shish kebab are Turkish food items.

The word "donair" (döner) in Turkish literally means 'turning', since the meat turns on its stand as it cooks.

Similarly, in Turkish the word "Shish" (Şiş) means "stick", or "skewer", so in other words "kebab on a stick"! :)

Bonus: Have you seen "Tavuk" or "Taook" donair or shish? Well, "tavuk" means "chicken" in Turkish indicating that the kebab is made with chicken meat instead of the more common beef.
