Etymology

[edit]

From Middle Persian [Book Pahlavi needed] (mlc /⁠marz⁠/, boundary, march; (astronomy) term), from Proto-Indo-European *merǵ- (edge, boundary, border). Cognate with Avestan 𐬨𐬀𐬭𐬆𐬰𐬀 (marəza, frontier), Proto-Germanic *markō (> English march), and Latin margo. Akin to the Iranian borrowings: Old Armenian մարզ (marz), մարձ (marj), Georgian მაზრა (mazra), Classical Syriac ܡܪܙܐ (marzā).
