Etymology

edit

Perhaps related to the obsolete verb بخیدن, with the wrong meaning in the dictionaries due to misunderstanding in the meaning of Persian old texts. Cognate with Sanskrit सीव्यति (sīvyati, to sew, darn, stitch). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)

Noun

edit

بخیه (baxiye) (plural بخیه‌ها (baxiye-hâ))

  1. stitch, suture
