Cypriot Arabic: korkás

→ French: koulkas

→ German: Kulkas f, Culcas f (rare)

→ Latin: culcas, colcas

→ Middle Armenian: ղուլղաս (ġulġas)

→ Spanish: alcolcaz

→ Ottoman Turkish: قلقاس (kulkas)

From Classical Syriac ܩܠܩܐܣ (qōlqās), ܩܠܘܩܣ (qōlqōs), ܩܠܘܩܘܣ (qōlōqōs), ܩܠܩܐ (qalqā, qelqā, “taro”), still attested in Turoyo ܩܰܠܩܳܐ (qalqo, “a kind of cardoon or artichoke”), Northeastern Neo-Aramaic ܩܰܠܩܳܐ (qalqa) and in some dialects ܩܰܩܢܳܐ (qaqna), which also explains Persian کنگر (kangar, “thistle; acanthus”), and also in Mishnaic Hebrew קולקס, קרקס (“taro”).
This is said to be from Egyptian, as the Ancient Greek κολοκασία (kolokasía) and Latin colocasia meaning taro is known to be transferred only from the 4ᵗʰ century AD from the meaning of sacred lotus which also has an edible rhizome, but Coptic ⲕⲟⲗⲧⲁϧ (koltax), ⲕⲟⲗⲅⲁⲥ (kolgas), ⲕⲟⲣⲕⲁⲥⲓ (korkasi) is reckoned as from Hebrew or Arabic.
The origin is then Semitic at least ultimately in view of Akkadian qulqulliānu, qulqullânu (“a type of cassia?”), Ugaritic 𐎖𐎍𐎖𐎍 (qlql, some medicinal plant also fed to horses), Hebrew קְלוֹקֵל (qəlōqēl, “inferior, poor; miserable food”), Arabic قِلْقِل (qilqil, “some kind of hard-grained plant”), قُلَاقِل (qulāqil, “devil-bean, Crotalaria retusa”), the latter and قُلْقُل (qulqul) also meaning “agile, exuberant”, evidently all just reduplications of the root ق ل ل (q-l-l).

Maltese: bordi

→ Medieval Latin: palperium, palpedrum (Italy from 13ᵗʰ century)

→ Persian: بردی (bardi)

→ Spanish: albardín

→ French: alvarde

Together with Latin buda (“cattail”) declared a Berber borrowing; though a connection to Old Armenian պրտու (prtu, “paper reed”) complicates this; maybe both the Armenian and Arabic have been mediated by Aramaic, considering that the particular meaning of paper reed is distributed right in the historical Aramaic language area, and that Persian بوری (buri), بوریه (buriya), بوریه (buriye, “split reed, marsh reed; reed mat”) is expected from a source word ending -ītā in the emphatic state. Vollers lists the Arabic term under the “secure borrowings from Egyptian”, perhaps thinking about a semantic interference of Coptic ⲃⲱ (bō, “bush”) from Demotic b (/*βoːʔ/, “bush”) from Egyptian bꜣt (/*ˈbaːʀat/, “bush, especially paper reed”); in Corriente’s last dictionary instead ⲡⲓ-ⲣⲱⲧⲓ ~ ⲣⲟϯ (pi-rōti ~ roti, “overgrowths”) is suggested. But forms فَافِير (fāfīr), فَفِير (fafīr), بَابِير (bābīr), بَبِير (babīr) employed for paper reed are secure borrowings from Ancient Greek πάπυρος (pápuros).

قد غلب عليها البربير وهو البرديُّ المعمول منه الطوامير ولم أعلم لما بمصر من هذا البربير نظيرًا بوجه الأرض إلّا ما بصقلّيَّة منه وأكثره يفتل حبالًا للمراكب وأقلُّه يعمل للسلطان منه طوامير لا تزيد على قدر كفايته

[And the swamplands of Palermo] were abounding in papyrus, that is paper reed, from which the scrolls where made. I know none on the face of the earth looking like that of Egypt except that of Sicily. From the bulk one plaits hawsers for the ships, and a rather small share is processed into scrolls for the ruler just as meets his demand.

بَرْدِي: واحدة بردية، ويسمى الأباء والحَفَأ، وهو الخوص عند بعض الرواة، والخُوص أيصا هو القصب مثل البردي، […]

Paper reed, one is bardīya, is also called abāʾ and ḥafaʾ, it is fronds amongst some pastoralists, and fronds is also a rush like the paper reed.

From the root د و س (d-w-s) or lengthened from د س س (d-s-s) because of their being trodden down. Or according to Dictionnaire du faisceau dialectal arabe andalou, an Old South Arabian variant of ثُدَّاء (ṯuddāʔ, “desert papyrus (Cyperus conglomeratus)”), hence due to Yemenite expatriates markedly occurring in Northwestern Arabic.
