From Proto-Iranian *hižwáH (compare Persian زوان (zavân)/زبان (zabân), Pashto ژبه (žəba), Avestan 𐬵𐬌𐬰𐬎𐬎𐬁 (hizuuā)), from Proto-Indo-Iranian *ȷ́iȷ́ʰwáH (compare Sanskrit जिह्वा (jihvā), Hindi जीभ (jībh)), from Proto-Indo-European *dn̥ǵʰwéh₂s (compare Old Prussian insuwis, Russian язы́к (jazýk), French langue, English tongue).
The expected sound development would be *zivan, however it seems Kurdish does not allow -z- followed by -m- as it does not with -š- and -m-/-n- (compare the sound changes in jimartin, nas, hîn etc.), therefore the earlier -*w- shifted into -m- instead. The Southern Kurdish زوان (zwan) was preserved because of Hawrami influence.

From Arabic عَوْرَة (ʕawra, “pudendum, genitals”), derived from the root ع و ر (ʕ w r). But the sound shift is irregular, *ewret would be expected instead, which is already loaned as another word. Perhaps related to afirandin and initially meant creature (compare Arabic عِفْرِيت (ʕifrīt), from Iranic *āfrīt) but later on shifted senses under the influence of other languages in the region because of phonetic similarity. Compare Turkish avrat. The relation between the sense of "creature" and the family or possessions of one is seen in other Iranic traditions, compare Middle Persian d'm (/dām/), meaning "livestock" but used to denote "creature" in Zoroastrian texts.
Similar word shifts are common around the regions of Soran and Behdinan, compare Central Kurdish مێرد (mêrd), replaced by پیاو (pyaw) to mean "man" and now only means "husband". The same occurence is happening with the original word that means "woman", jin, where it is changed into only signifying "wife", while another word is used for "woman"; the difference of which doesn't exist in other Kurdish dialects.

According to the Dehkhoda Dictionary, the Akkadian word consists of the parts tin meaning "mud" and nuro/nura meaning "fire" and is mentioned as early as in the Akkadian Epic of Gilgamesh.
