Latin[edit]

Etymology[edit]

From Gaulish *arinca, perhaps from Proto-Celtic *(p)arwenkâ, from Proto-Indo-European *(p)Hwen, related to Hittite 𒉺𒅈𒄷𒄴𒈾𒀸 (“kind of cereal”).[1]

Pokorny suggests that this word may come from a Proto-Indo-European root common to Ancient Greek ἄρακος (árakos),[2] but Beekes writes that they are unrelated.[3]
