"بینی" meaning in Persian

See بینی in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /biː.ˈniː/ [Classical-Persian], [biː.níː] [Dari, formal], [biː.níː] [Dari, formal], [biː.níː] [Kabuli], [bi.ní] (note: Hazaragi), [biː.níː] [Iran, formal], [bi.ní] [Tajik, formal] Forms: bīnī [romanization], bini [romanization], spelling бинӣ [Tajik]
Etymology: From Middle Persian 𐭥𐭩𐭭𐭩𐭪 (wēnīg), traditionally derived from Proto-Indo-European *weyd- (“to see”) and related to بین (bīn /bin, form of دیدن (dīdan /didan)). However, Gershevitch rejects this etymology, transcribing the Middle Persian term as wīnīg instead, and deriving it from Proto-Iranian *wí (“apart”) + an Iranian formation descended from Proto-Indo-European *h₂enh₁- (“to breathe”). The prefix is from Proto-Indo-Iranian *wí, from Proto-Indo-European *wí (“apart”). Connection with Northern Kurdish bêvil (“nose”) is uncertain.

The prefix is from Proto-Indo-Iranian *wí, from Proto-Indo-European *wí (“apart”).\nConnection with Northern Kurdish bêvil (“nose”) is uncertain.",
