"गुण" meaning in Sanskrit

See गुण in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ɡu.ɳɐ́/ [Vedic], /ˈɡu.ɳɐ/ [Classical]
Etymology: Of uncertain origin. The oldest attested meaning is probably “time, occurrence”, though the original meaning is probably "hair" or "string". The prevailing theory links the word to Persian گون (gun, “color; species”); see there for more. Other theories connect the word to Gothic 𐌺𐌿𐌽𐌰𐍅𐌹𐌳𐌰 (kunawida, “fetters”) and Avestan 𐬔𐬏𐬥𐬀𐬊𐬌𐬙𐬌 (gūnaoⁱti, “increases”).
