Etymology

The origin in uncertain.[1][2] Has been compared to Avestan 𐬞𐬆𐬭𐬆𐬚𐬎 (pərəθu), Lua error: Parameter "t" has been entered more than once. This is probably because a parameter alias has been used.[3][4][5][6] and also to Georgian ფართო (parto), Mingrelian ფართე (parte), Laz ფართო (parto, wide)[7][8], which may be Iranian borrowings[1]. Perhaps borrowed from an unidentified Iranian cognate of these words.[9]
