أريج
Arabic edit
Alternative forms edit
Etymology edit
Seemingly a back-formation from أَرْجُوَان (ʔarjuwān, “redbud”); however the presumable mutilation of the phytonym could have originated in colloquial Middle Persian, taking inspiration from the suffix -īg, Proto-Iranian *-ikah, from Proto-Indo-European *-kos; the suffix’s earlier state -īk can be seen in زَمْزَرِيق (zamzarīq, “redbud”).
