վէգ
Old Armenian
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Middle Iranian *vēg. Compare Avestan 𐬬𐬀𐬉𐬖𐬀 (vaēγa, “stroke, blow”), Persian ویغ (vêğ, “scream, shouting, noise”), Sanskrit वेग (vega, “violent agitation, shock, jerk”). The sense "knucklebone (also used like dice in a game)" perhaps developed from an earlier meaning of "projectile"; compare also Georgian კამათელი (ḳamateli, “die, dice”) beside კამათი (ḳamati, “argument, dispute”).
