Etymology

An Iranian borrowing: compare Middle Persian (ʾzd /⁠azd⁠/, known), Parthian: 𐫀𐫉𐫅 (ʾzd /⁠azd⁠/, known, public). Ultimately from Proto-Indo-Iranian *adᶻdʰáH.

Some of the derived terms are spelled with աստ- (ast-). This may be an alternative form of ազդ (azd) (compare ազդր (azdr) ~ աստր (astr)) or an unrelated root inherited from the Indo-European source of հաստ (hast). In compounds spelled with an -ս- (-s-), the root has the meaning "firm, strong", supposedly from "influential".

Noun

ազդ (azd) indeclinable

  1. information

    ազդ առնեմazd aṙnemto announce, tell

  2. influence, effect
    Synonyms: ազդումն (azdumn), ազդեցութիւն (azdecʻutʻiwn)

Usage notes

The word was indeclinable and mainly used in the idioms ազդ առնեմ (azd aṙnem), ազդ լինիմ (azd linim), which are probably Iranian calques.
