Etymology

[edit]

@Fay Freak They are all from Iraqi Shia sources which highly means that is a borrowing from Persian and not the other way around. — Fenakhay (حيطي · مساهماتي) 22:01, 23 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Fenakhay: Well there are some terms that are Shia-only, while Shia is regional by itself, and terms that are Iraq-only from antiquity. Your root was still less correct, though formally expected: but of course pseudo-loans, loans from merely imagined words, can derive from multiple things simultaneously the speaker had in mind. I get your feeling of a mental barrier to assume the existence of an Arabic word formed with Arabic grammar but at the same time not claim the Persian borrowed from it but the Arabic from it, which might not be well received if we have not explicitized our reasonings, so apparently we needed to betalk it. I think the circumstance of such a form deriving its meaning from ق و م (q-w-m) in a formally spurious fashion is quite an argument that it wasn’t formed by a native speaker.
