Etymology

[edit]

Borrowed from Latin obryzum (pure gold), from Ancient Greek ὄβρυζον (óbruzon), from ὄβρυζος (óbruzos, pure), from ὄβρυζα (óbruza, assaying of gold), ultimately from Hurrian 𒂁𒄷𒌋𒌒𒊒𒍑𒄭 (DUG.ḫu-u-ub-ru-uš-ḫi /⁠ḫubrušḫi⁠/, crucible, smelter, melting-pot), likely via the route of Hittite 𒄷𒌒𒊒𒍑𒄭 (ḫu-up-ru-uš-ḫi /⁠ḫuprušḫi-⁠/). Borrowings also attested in Jewish Literary Aramaic אובריזין (ʾaḇrōzōn), Akkadian 𒄷𒌒𒊒𒍑𒄷 (ḫu-up-ru-uš-ḫu /⁠ḫuprušḫu⁠/, earthen, metal, precious, container), and Ugaritic 𐎃𐎁𐎗𐎘 (ḫbrṯ, stew-pot).
