"مهره" meaning in Persian

See مهره in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [muh.ˈɾa] [Classical-Persian], [mo̞ɦ.ɾǽ] [Dari, formal], [mo̞ɦ.ɾǽ] [Dari, formal], [mʊ.ɾǽ] [Kabuli], [mu.ɾǽ] (note: Hazaragi), [moɦ.ɹé] [Iran, formal], [mɵh.ɾǽ] [Tajik, formal] Forms: mohre [romanization], مهرگان [plural], مهرهها [plural]
Etymology: From Middle Persian [script needed] (mwhlk' /⁠muhrag⁠/, “bead, vertebra, piece (in backgammon, etc.)”). Compare Parthian [script needed] (mwhrg /⁠muhrag⁠/). Equivalent to مهر (mohr, “seal”) + ـه (-e). Note especially the meanings of a polished parchment or papyrus found in Arabic مُهْرَق (muhraq), apart from Old Armenian մուրհակ (murhak, “deed”), Jewish Babylonian Aramaic מוהרק (mūhraq, “writ”) and the many senses of Sanskrit मुद्रा f (mudrā, “seal”), from which the meanings of a bead or shell must be transferred. For comparison, one even derived, by way of an absurd literary meaning-guessing, the sense of a “mirror” for سَجَنْجَل (sajanjal, “glossy papyrus leaves”), the original meaning being a hapax against copious abuse. Akin to Mazanderani میرکا (mirkâ, “bead”).

  "etymology_text": "From Middle Persian [script needed] (mwhlk' /⁠muhrag⁠/, “bead, vertebra, piece (in backgammon, etc.)”). Compare Parthian [script needed] (mwhrg /⁠muhrag⁠/). Equivalent to مهر (mohr, “seal”) + ـه (-e). Note especially the meanings of a polished parchment or papyrus found in Arabic مُهْرَق (muhraq), apart from Old Armenian մուրհակ (murhak, “deed”), Jewish Babylonian Aramaic מוהרק (mūhraq, “writ”) and the many senses of Sanskrit मुद्रा f (mudrā, “seal”), from which the meanings of a bead or shell must be transferred. For comparison, one even derived, by way of an absurd literary meaning-guessing, the sense of a “mirror” for سَجَنْجَل (sajanjal, “glossy papyrus leaves”), the original meaning being a hapax against copious abuse. Akin to Mazanderani میرکا (mirkâ, “bead”).",
