# بارود
## Arabic
### Etymology

Uncertain. Not a Classical Arabic word. Possible etymologies:
* From بَرُود (barūd, “a soothing collyrium (كُحْل (kuḥl)) used against inflammation of the eye; any powdery collyrium”), following common colloquial alteration between a and ā in words of the form CaCūC.
* Via Aramaic from Armenian վառօդ (vaṙōd, “gunpowder”), composed of վառ (vaṙ, “burning”) + օդ (ōd, “air”). However, Ačaṙyan regards this as a folk-etymology reshaping of բարութ (barutʻ), which was ultimately borrowed from this very Arabic term.
* From Medival Greek πύρωτον (pýrōton, “type of flammable chemical”), from Ancient Greek πυρίτης λίθος (purítēs líthos, “stone of fire, flint”), the first part is an adjective πυρίτης (purítēs, “of or in fire”), from πῦρ (pûr, “fire”).

### Etymology 2

* This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium. Particularly: “Considered native Hmongic by Ratliff, though no reconstructed proto-form is given. If the original meaning is "to thank", then perhaps borrowed from Middle Chinese 謝 (MC zjaeH, “to thank, apologize”), with semantic shift "thank" > "acknowledge hard work" > "hard work" > "tiredness"? That said, maybe the "thank" and "weak, tired" meanings are separate, in which case further origins are further obscured.”

    tsaug tsaug leeg li ― very weak, feeble

##### Derived terms

* tsaug zog (“sleepy”)

### Etymology 3

* This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium. Particularly: “Not mentioned by Ratliff at all. Bears a vague resemblance to Chinese 洗 (xǐ, “to wash, rinse”) or 灑／洒 (sǎ, “to sprinkle, splash”), though it doesn't seem like the hypothetical proto-Hmongic form can link to these terms.”
