Armenian

Alternative forms

Etymology

The origin is uncertain. Related to Old Armenian կեչի (kečʻi, larch).

J̌ahukyan considers this borrowed from Uralic (compare Lua error in Module:parameters at line 290: Parameter 1 should be a valid language, etymology language or family code; the value "fiu-fin-pro" is not valid. See WT:LOL, WT:LOL/E and WT:LOF.) and wonders about the path of derivation.[6][7]

Martirosyan tentatively suggests derivation from Proto-Indo-European *gʷet-yeh₂-, from *gʷet- (resin).[8]
