# طارم
## Ottoman Turkish
### Etymology

Borrowed from Persian طارم (târam, “dome; palisade; trellis”), a word of Mongolic origin. According to Meyer, the word derives from Ancient Greek τέραμνον (téramnon, “chamber, house”), but this is less likely. Doublet of تارم (tarem, “nomad's tent of felt”).

### Noun

طارم • (tarem)
* dome, cupola, any structural element resembling the hollow upper half of a sphere
    Synonyms: قبه (kubbe), كنبد (kümbed)
* kind of wooden shed or building of a circular form provided with an arched roof

### Etymology

A Mongolic borrowing: compare Middle Mongol [script needed] (terme, “the wooden grate of the walls of a felt tent”), Kalmyk терм (term, “the wall grate of the kibitka”).
The Mongolic term was borrowed into Turkic: Kipchak terma (terme), Turkish tarma, Tatar тирмә (tirmä), Bashkir тирмә (tirmə), Nogai терме (terme), Kazakh терме (terme), Khakas тирме (tirme), Tuvan тербе (terbe).
The following are ultimately from the same source, acquired via Turkic and/or Persian: Arabic طَارِمَة (ṭārima), Egyptian Arabic طارمة (ṭāṛma), Moroccan Arabic طارمة (ṭāṛma), Andalusian Arabic طَارِمَة (ṭaríma) (whence Catalan tarima, Spanish tarima), Middle Armenian թարմայ (tʻarmay), Armenian թառմա (tʻaṙma).
The spelling with a ط (t) was influenced by the Arabic cognates.
