Etymology[edit]
From a Middle Iranian term continued as Persian نول (nôl, “the outer part of the mouth; a beak, bill; a spout; the neck of a bottle; tube, channel; anything on which one leans or is supported; a whirlpool, vortex”).[1] The Hebrew נוּל (nūl) is even later loaned from Judaeo-Aramaic where it means “loom”.[2][3]
