"etymology_text": "The origin is uncertain.\nAčaṙyan considers accidental the similarity with synonymous Ancient Greek ἠρύγγιον (ērúngion, diminutive), ἤρυγγος (ḗrungos), and derives երնջ(ն)ակ (ernǰ(n)ak) from երինջ (erinǰ, “heifer, young cow”), typologically comparing synonymous Turkish boğa dikeni (literally “bull thorn”), Middle Armenian ըղտու խնծոր (əġtu xncor, literally “camel's apple”) and especially Mingrelian გინიში ჯონჯღო (giniši ǯonǯɣo), გინიშ ჯღონჯღო (giniš ǯɣonǯɣo). The latter contains გინი (gini), გენი (geni, “heifer”) and is synonymous with Georgian ღიჭა (ɣič̣a, “Sonchus”). Martirosyan adds to the comparison Ancient Greek ἐρίφιον (eríphion, “Rubus agrestis”), a diminutive of ἔριφος (ériphos, “kid”).\nA borrowing from Ancient Greek ἠρύγγιον (ērúngion) is unlikely, because the plant is common in Armenia and is relatively widespread in the dialects. Al-Biruni relates that field eryngo is imported from Armenia and used as food.\nThe synonymous Ottoman Turkish էրինճէ (erince) found only in Pōzačean's dictionary is an Armenian borrowing.\nNote the Arabic transliterations أُورِنْجِيُون (ʔūrinjiyūn), هُورِنْجِيُون (hūrinjiyūn) of Ancient Greek ἠρύγγιον (ērúngion) in Al-Biruni.",
