"խաչ" meaning in Old Armenian

See խաչ in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: The origin is uncertain. Lidén connects with Persian خاده (xâda, “pole; stake; gibbet”), Lithuanian kótas (“broomstick”), Latvian kāts (“handle, shaft”), and derives all from Proto-Indo-European. This is accepted by Ačaṙean, who adduces also Old Armenian խոչ (xočʿ, “a piece of wood, stone protruding from ground upon which one may stumble, an obstacle”) and խէչ (xēčʿ), խեչ (xečʿ, “prop, stay, on which plants are supported”) as ablaut grades. If this is correct, the initial meaning of խաչ (xačʿ) was "stake, stick, upright pile". For the sense development compare Georgian ჯვარი (ǯvari), Ancient Greek σταυρός (staurós, “upright stake or pile; crucifix”), Gothic 𐌲𐌰𐌻𐌲𐌰 (galga, “stake; cross; gallows”), Manichaean Parthian 𐫅𐫀𐫡 (dʾr /⁠dār⁠/, “tree, gallows, cross; wood”). Olsen rejects the above etymology on phonetic grounds. Note also dialectal Georgian ხაჭა (xač̣a, “long, thick stick”) which is probably somehow related. The words for "Christian cross" in neighbouring languages are certainly borrowed from Christian Armenians, in some cases possibly via Persian خاچ (xâč).

  "etymology_text": "The origin is uncertain.\nLidén connects with Persian خاده (xâda, “pole; stake; gibbet”), Lithuanian kótas (“broomstick”), Latvian kāts (“handle, shaft”), and derives all from Proto-Indo-European. This is accepted by Ačaṙean, who adduces also Old Armenian խոչ (xočʿ, “a piece of wood, stone protruding from ground upon which one may stumble, an obstacle”) and խէչ (xēčʿ), խեչ (xečʿ, “prop, stay, on which plants are supported”) as ablaut grades. If this is correct, the initial meaning of խաչ (xačʿ) was \"stake, stick, upright pile\". For the sense development compare Georgian ჯვარი (ǯvari), Ancient Greek σταυρός (staurós, “upright stake or pile; crucifix”), Gothic 𐌲𐌰𐌻𐌲𐌰 (galga, “stake; cross; gallows”), Manichaean Parthian 𐫅𐫀𐫡 (dʾr /⁠dār⁠/, “tree, gallows, cross; wood”).\nOlsen rejects the above etymology on phonetic grounds.\nNote also dialectal Georgian ხაჭა (xač̣a, “long, thick stick”) which is probably somehow related.\nThe words for \"Christian cross\" in neighbouring languages are certainly borrowed from Christian Armenians, in some cases possibly via Persian خاچ (xâč).",

  "etymology_text": "The origin is uncertain.\nLidén connects with Persian خاده (xâda, “pole; stake; gibbet”), Lithuanian kótas (“broomstick”), Latvian kāts (“handle, shaft”), and derives all from Proto-Indo-European. This is accepted by Ačaṙean, who adduces also Old Armenian խոչ (xočʿ, “a piece of wood, stone protruding from ground upon which one may stumble, an obstacle”) and խէչ (xēčʿ), խեչ (xečʿ, “prop, stay, on which plants are supported”) as ablaut grades. If this is correct, the initial meaning of խաչ (xačʿ) was \"stake, stick, upright pile\". For the sense development compare Georgian ჯვარი (ǯvari), Ancient Greek σταυρός (staurós, “upright stake or pile; crucifix”), Gothic 𐌲𐌰𐌻𐌲𐌰 (galga, “stake; cross; gallows”), Manichaean Parthian 𐫅𐫀𐫡 (dʾr /⁠dār⁠/, “tree, gallows, cross; wood”).\nOlsen rejects the above etymology on phonetic grounds.\nNote also dialectal Georgian ხაჭა (xač̣a, “long, thick stick”) which is probably somehow related.\nThe words for \"Christian cross\" in neighbouring languages are certainly borrowed from Christian Armenians, in some cases possibly via Persian خاچ (xâč).",
