Synonyms edit

تَقَمْقَمَ (taqamqama)

Etymology 2 edit

قُمْقُم

Borrowed from Aramaic קוּמְקְמָא (qumqəmā, “cooking vessel; cooling vessel”), from Imperial Aramaic 𐡒𐡅𐡒𐡌 (qwqm), from Akkadian 𒂁𒆪𒆪𒁍 (/⁠kukkubu, quqquba⁠/, “a smaller container used as an alabastron, libation jar, or drikining flask; originally a drinking pouch made from an animal's stomach, any similar pouch with a small opening”), considered possibly a loan or developed from Sumerian 𒂁𒃻𒋫𒆸 (/⁠gugguru⁠/, “tall earthen vessel with a narrow opening”); whence ultimately also Ancient Greek κούκκουμα (koúkkouma), diminutive κουκκούμιον (koukkoúmion), and Latin cucuma, compare Classical Syriac ܩܘܿܩܡܳܐ (qūqəmā, “pot”), absolute state ܩܘܿܩܽܡ (qūqum). The Persian (qomqome), now more popular than the Arabic word, has been borrowed from Aramaic into Middle Persian [Book Pahlavi needed] (KWKMʾ).
