سنجار

Arabic

Etymology

From جَبَل سِنْجَار (jabal sinjār, “Sinjar Mountain Range”), from Ancient Greek Σίγγαρα (Síngara), ultimately from Sumerian 𒆠𒂗𒄀𒊏 (ki-en-gi-ra, “of the Sumerians”, literally “place in possession of noble lords”); cognates with Hebrew שִׁנְעָר (šinʿar), Hittite 𒋗𒈨𒊒 (šanhar), Egyptian sngr (sanhar, sankhar, “Babylonia”), possibly also derived as variations of Akkadian 𒋗𒈨𒊒 (šumerû).
