"թել" meaning in Old Armenian

See թել in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: The origin is disputed. The same word is found in several language groups: Iranian – Persian تیلا (“rope; spinning wheel”), Khotanese [script needed] (ttīla-) (from older *tēla-), Ossetian тел (tel), Northern Kurdish têl, Central Kurdish تێل (têl), تەل (tel); Turkic – Ottoman Turkish تل (tel), Azerbaijani tel, Crimean Tatar tel, Gagauz tel, Kumyk тел (tel), Nogai тел (tel), Turkmen til, perhaps also Karakhanid تِلیٖ (tili, “thong”), Chuvash тал (tal, “strand”); Northeast Caucasian — Avar тел (tel), Dargwa тел (tel), Lezgi тел (tel). The interrelationship of these is not clear; a Turkic origin that has been suggested is unconvincing. According to some, the Armenian is a native term inherited from a derivative of Proto-Indo-European *ten- (“to stretch, draw”) or *tek- (“to weave”). The rest are then Armenian borrowings, with a high certainty in case of Turkish. On the other hand, Bailey derives all from Old Iranian *tarθrya-, from Proto-Indo-European *terh₁- (“to rub, turn; to drill, pierce”), whence notably English thread, the Armenian and Turkic being Iranian borrowings, in case of Turkic perhaps via Armenian. Abaev adduces also Persian تار (târ) as a cognate. Note also Central Kurdish تاڵ (tall, “string, cord”). Note also Hebrew תּוֹר (tōr, “line”), Jewish Babylonian Aramaic תּוֹרָא (tōrā, “cord, band”), deriving from Akkadian 𒄙 (/⁠turru, ṭurru⁠/, “yarn, twine, wire, string; a twist of fibers”) and the source of obsolete Arabic تُرّ (turr, “plumb line”), possibly related to the native verb *tawar- (“to go about, to circle, to turn about, to encompass, to come around again; to plait, to braid”), or ultimately from Sumerian 𒄙 (dur, “strip”).

  "etymology_text": "The origin is disputed. The same word is found in several language groups: Iranian – Persian تیلا (“rope; spinning wheel”), Khotanese [script needed] (ttīla-) (from older *tēla-), Ossetian тел (tel), Northern Kurdish têl, Central Kurdish تێل (têl), تەل (tel); Turkic – Ottoman Turkish تل (tel), Azerbaijani tel, Crimean Tatar tel, Gagauz tel, Kumyk тел (tel), Nogai тел (tel), Turkmen til, perhaps also Karakhanid تِلیٖ (tili, “thong”), Chuvash тал (tal, “strand”); Northeast Caucasian — Avar тел (tel), Dargwa тел (tel), Lezgi тел (tel). The interrelationship of these is not clear; a Turkic origin that has been suggested is unconvincing.\nAccording to some, the Armenian is a native term inherited from a derivative of Proto-Indo-European *ten- (“to stretch, draw”) or *tek- (“to weave”). The rest are then Armenian borrowings, with a high certainty in case of Turkish.\nOn the other hand, Bailey derives all from Old Iranian *tarθrya-, from Proto-Indo-European *terh₁- (“to rub, turn; to drill, pierce”), whence notably English thread, the Armenian and Turkic being Iranian borrowings, in case of Turkic perhaps via Armenian. Abaev adduces also Persian تار (târ) as a cognate. Note also Central Kurdish تاڵ (tall, “string, cord”).\nNote also Hebrew תּוֹר (tōr, “line”), Jewish Babylonian Aramaic תּוֹרָא (tōrā, “cord, band”), deriving from Akkadian 𒄙 (/⁠turru, ṭurru⁠/, “yarn, twine, wire, string; a twist of fibers”) and the source of obsolete Arabic تُرّ (turr, “plumb line”), possibly related to the native verb *tawar- (“to go about, to circle, to turn about, to encompass, to come around again; to plait, to braid”), or ultimately from Sumerian 𒄙 (dur, “strip”).",
