Old Armenian
[edit]Etymology
[edit]The origin is uncertain. Since Gēorg Dpir usually connected with Arabic بُرْدِيّ (burdiyy), but a direct borrowing from the Arabic is neither chronologically nor phonologically possible. Closely related to Assyrian Neo-Aramaic ܦܪܬܘܟ (pirtūk, “rush, reed”), Northern Kurdish pirtûk, Central Kurdish پەرتووک (pertûk), Zazaki pîrtok (“book”).
Noun
[edit]պրտու • (prtu)
- papyrus, paper reed, Cyperus papyrus (an aquatic flowering plant of the sedge family)
Usage notes
[edit]In Job, translates Ancient Greek πάπυρος (pápuros).
