[edit]Etymology
[edit]Traditionally considered a derivative of փուշ (pʻuš, “thorn, prickle”), because oleaster is thorny.[1][2] But Mkrtchyan considers this a folk etymology and derives փշատ (pʻšat) from an unattested Iranian descendant of Proto-Iranian *paiš- (“to crush, grind”), whence Avestan 𐬞𐬌𐬱𐬀𐬧𐬙- (pišaṇt-, “crushing, bruising”), Middle Persian [Book Pahlavi needed] (pst /pist/, “browned flour”), Persian پست (pest, “flour, meal; browned flour”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *peys- (“to grind, crush”), because oleaster fruits are used for making sweet flour.[3]
Noun
