ծիրան in Old Armenian

Forms: ciran [romanization] [Show additional information ▼] [Hide additional information ▲]

Etymology: Uncertain. A presence in at least late Old Armenian is assured by appearance in the Greek section of the Galen dictionary and by the Arabic borrowing ثِيرَان (ṯīrān) attested in a work written in 902–903. Almost certainly related to Old Armenian ծիրանի (cirani, “purple”) attested since the Classical period (5th c.), although some doubt persists because the purple is not the main color of the apricot. Even though the apricot has been considered an Armenian fruit (compare Translingual Prunus armeniaca, Latin armeniacum, Italian armellino, Ancient Greek μῆλον Ἀρμενιακόν (mêlon Armeniakón), Arabic [script needed] (tuffāḥ al-armanī, “apricot”)), it is not native to the Armenian Highland but has spread from Central Asia to West Asia to Mediterranean Europe & North Africa. See the Wikipedia article for more. Closely related to Georgian ჭერამი (č̣erami), Abkhaz а-ҷара́м (a-čʼarám, “apricot”). Possibly also related to several words found in some Indo-Iranian languages of the Hindu Kush, Pamir and Western Himalaya: Yazghulami čiray, Munji čīrī, Prasuni cirẽ, Ashkun cirä̃, Kamkata-viri cirə, Kashmiri ژیر (ċēr), Bhadrawahi [script needed] (čīrõ, “apricot”). Note also Central Kurdish شْڵانە (şillane), شێڵانە (şêllane), Gurani شێڵانێ (šɛłānɛ) and Alviri-Vidari شیلان (šilān, “apricot”). Old Armenian ծիրանի (cirani, “purple”) is closely related to Svan წჷრნი (c̣ərni), წჷრა̈ნი (c̣əräni, “red”), წჷრან (c̣əran, “measles; pear variety”), possibly also to Tsakhur чӏаран (čʼaran, “red”). The interralationship of all these forms has not been satisfactorily explained.

  "etymology_text": "Uncertain. A presence in at least late Old Armenian is assured by appearance in the Greek section of the Galen dictionary and by the Arabic borrowing ثِيرَان (ṯīrān) attested in a work written in 902–903.\nAlmost certainly related to Old Armenian ծիրանի (cirani, “purple”) attested since the Classical period (5th c.), although some doubt persists because the purple is not the main color of the apricot.\nEven though the apricot has been considered an Armenian fruit (compare Translingual Prunus armeniaca, Latin armeniacum, Italian armellino, Ancient Greek μῆλον Ἀρμενιακόν (mêlon Armeniakón), Arabic [script needed] (tuffāḥ al-armanī, “apricot”)), it is not native to the Armenian Highland but has spread from Central Asia to West Asia to Mediterranean Europe & North Africa. See the Wikipedia article for more.\nClosely related to Georgian ჭერამი (č̣erami), Abkhaz а-ҷара́м (a-čʼarám, “apricot”). Possibly also related to several words found in some Indo-Iranian languages of the Hindu Kush, Pamir and Western Himalaya: Yazghulami čiray, Munji čīrī, Prasuni cirẽ, Ashkun cirä̃, Kamkata-viri cirə, Kashmiri ژیر (ċēr), Bhadrawahi [script needed] (čīrõ, “apricot”). Note also Central Kurdish شْڵانە (şillane), شێڵانە (şêllane), Gurani شێڵانێ (šɛłānɛ) and Alviri-Vidari شیلان (šilān, “apricot”).\nOld Armenian ծիրանի (cirani, “purple”) is closely related to Svan წჷრნი (c̣ərni), წჷრა̈ნი (c̣əräni, “red”), წჷრან (c̣əran, “measles; pear variety”), possibly also to Tsakhur чӏаран (čʼaran, “red”).\nThe interralationship of all these forms has not been satisfactorily explained.",
