Etymology

[edit]

Middle Persian has also ʾzn (azn, noble), attested in Manichaean (Mackeznie, "āznāwar", p. 16). --Z 13:18, 27 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Yes, newer sources claim an Iranian origin for ազն (azn) and აზნი (azni). I'll add an etymology later, when I'm less busy. --Vahag (talk) 13:37, 27 January 2014 (UTC)Reply
OK, see ʾzn and ʾznʾwl. Persian aznāvur and āznāvur may be inherited from MP or borrowed from Georgian. --Vahag (talk) 18:26, 28 January 2014 (UTC)Reply
