Etymology 2.1

Likely borrowed from Aramaic תִּבְנָא / ܬܒܢܐ (teḇnā, “straw”), which is suspected mainly because of the varying vocalization, and also because this root is underdeveloped or it has the unrelated meaning of a “bowl”. The Aramaic might in turn come from Akkadian 𒅔𒉡𒁕 (/⁠tibnu⁠/, “straw”) but can likewise be cognate. Else the word is only present in Hebrew תֶּבֶן (teḇen, “straw”), in which language there is nothing to relate to either.

Noun

تِبْن or تَبْن • (tibn or tabn) m (collective, plural أَتْبَان (ʔatbān))
