"شفلح" meaning in Arabic

See شفلح in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: While the shape suggests a Hurrian plant name, the ending is rather part of an Aramaic root פ־ל־ח / ܦ-ܠ-ܚ (p-l-ḥ) (as in فَلَّاح (fallāḥ)) or פ־ר־ח / ܦ-ܪ-ܚ (p-r-ḥ), which have been used for plant capsules bursting open such as the developing caperberry does; Aramaic פׅרְחָא (pirḥā) / ܦܲܪܚܵܐ (parḥā) is specifically attested as meaning caper. Compare parallel developments in لَصَف (laṣaf, “caper”); and indeed عِتْر (ʕitr, “caper; Glossonema varians”) is from a root used for slit offerings. The leading syllable in the present Arabic word is the Proto-Semitic causative prefix *ša-.
