From Classical Syriac ܡܪܕܓܫ (mardaguš, “marjoram”), derived from Middle Persian mlcngwš (marzangōš, “marjoram”), which itself was borrowed directly in the more classical form مَرْزَنْجُوش (marzanjūš). The first element mlc' (marw) is easily identified as a generic term for any herb; compare Sanskrit मरुव (maruva, “marjoram”).
