Etymology
[edit]J̌ahukyan considers the origin uncertain.[1]
Almost certainly an Iranian borrowing: compare Middle Persian [Inscriptional Pahlavi needed] (TMH /anōδ/), [Book Pahlavi needed] (TME /ānōh, *ānōy/), 𐫀𐫗𐫇𐫆 (ʾnwẖ /anōh/, “there”), 𐫀𐫇𐫏 (ʾwy /ōy/, “there”), Parthian [script needed] (TMH /ōδ/), 𐫀𐫇𐫇𐫅 (ʾwwd /ōδ/, “there”).
Suffix
