قارب

Arabic

Etymology

^{The template Template:ar-active participle does not use the parameter(s): 1=قَرَبَ
lang=ar
Please see Module:checkparams for help with this warning.}

Derived from the active participle of قَرِبَ (qariba, ““to approach””), from the root ق ر ب (q-r-b) meaning to “come near”, “to approach” or “to journey closer”.^[1]^[2] Originally referring to a small boat used by a seaman as a convenient means to approach shore rather than bringing a larger vessel to port.^[2]

Alternatively a loan from Latin carabus or Ancient Greek κάραβος (kárabos) – also found as Classical Syriac ܩܪܒܝܢ – with an uncertain etymology related to beetles and crabs, perhaps originally Semitic; for more see caravel, عَقْرَب (ʕaqrab) and its cognates.^[3]
