Talk:խոնաւ

The Persian word is unrelated. Based on Armenian and Kurdish words, someone can suggest MIr. *xwanāb (MIr. *xwa- > Old. Arm. xo-, Kur. xu/ū-). I think that they are ultimately from Proto-Iranian *hwaid- "to sweat", cognate with Old Arm. քիրտն.--Calak (talk) 18:16, 17 February 2019 (UTC)

@Calak, I added your theory along with another one. --Vahag (talk) 15:42, 18 February 2019 (UTC)

I also found SK. xüsa "dew" from same root (Proto-Iranian *hwaid- "to sweat").--Calak (talk) 16:07, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
