Etymology

From Middle Persian ptkʾl (struggle, battle, dispute).[1] Compare Manichaean Middle Persian [script needed] (phykʾʾr, strife, battle), Avestan 𐬞𐬀𐬌𐬙𐬌𐬀𐬐𐬆𐬭𐬆𐬥𐬀𐬊𐬝 (paitiakərənaot̰, he fought against)[2]. Ultimately from the preverb *pati- and the root *kar- (to do, make).[3][4] Old Armenian պայքար (paykʻar) and Georgian პაექრობა (ṗaekroba) are Iranian borrowings.[3]
