ارتشدار

Etymology

Learned borrowing from Middle Persian [script needed] (ʾltyštʾl /⁠artēštār⁠⁠/), related to the coinage of Iranian Persian (arteš) given the reinterpretation of the classical long /ē/ as short and the alternative spelling (arteštâr), neither of which match historical phonemic changes. Doublet of the inherited (artēšdār／artišdâr).
