Etymology

Borrowed from English arsenic compounded with adjectival ending -ig, borrowed from Middle French arsenic, from Latin arsenicum, from Ancient Greek ἀρσενικόν (arsenikón, “yellow arsenic”) (influenced by ἀρσενικός (arsenikós, “potent, virile”)), from Semitic, from Middle Iranian *zarnīk, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰelh₃-. Related to glas (“blue”), glân (“clean”), and clorin (“chlorine”).
