"رعي الحمام" meaning in Arabic

See رعي الحمام in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /riʕj al.ħa.maːm/
Etymology: A science translation calque of Classical Syriac ܪܥܝܐ ܕܝܘܢܐ (reʿyā də-yawnē), which is depending on the meaning of the first word “meadow of doves”, “kit of doves”, “food of doves”, apparently the Arabic translators took the “fodder” meaning as this is what Arabic رِعْي (riʕy) means—unless the Arabic phytonym is a loanblend even—, while the Syriac translators took the other meanings, misinterpreting Ancient Greek περῐστερεών (peristereṓn), περῐστεριών (peristeriṓn), περῐστέριον (peristérion, “vervain”) as the same word as περῐστερεών (peristereṓn, “dovecote”), both being from περῐστερᾱ́ (peristerā́, “pigeon”). Spread from the materia medica into general use, but modernly half of the time deformed as رِجْل الْحَمَام (rijl al-ḥamām) or سَاق الْحَمَام (sāq al-ḥamām) due to the alienness of the first word.
