Old Armenian
Etymology
A modern word of uncertain origin. Ačaṙyan records first usage in 1780s.[1]
Perhaps of onomatopoeic origin, from the sound made when sipping coffee.[2][3] Typologically compare Hungarian szürcsöl (“to slurp, sip”), of onomatopoeic origin. Folk etymology explains as սեւ (sew, “black”) + ջուր (ǰur, “water”).
