Etymology

edit

Inherited from Middle Persian 𐭡𐭩𐭲𐭠 (xānag, house), from Old Persian *vahanam (house), from Proto-Iranian *wāhana (habitation), from Proto-Iranian *Hwah- (to dwell, remain), from Proto-Indo-Iranian *Hwas- (to dwell, inhabit; to stay a night), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂wes- (to dwell, live, reside; to stay, spend the night).

Compare phonetically and semantically similar کده (kada, house; place of).

Related to دیوان (divân).
