Alternative forms[edit]

Etymology[edit]

Uncertain. Has been identified with homonymous дийхк (diı̇xk), дихк (dixk, liver), supposedly because of its internal structure — while decaying and drying out the tree resembles the liver in color,[1] but this is probably a folk etymology. Compare Old Armenian դղքի (dłkʻi, maple).

Noun[edit]

дийхк (diı̇xk)

  1. pine tree
