Old Armenian

Etymology

Uncertain. The attempt to explain as inheritance from Proto-Indo-European *sm̥- (together) + *dóru (tree) is phonetically irregular, so is the proposed connection to Ancient Greek δένδρον (déndron).

Perhaps a Semitic borrowing: compare Akkadian 𒄑𒄟 (GEŠILDAG2 /⁠adāru, atāru, aṭāru⁠/, an indigenous tree, probably Populus euphratica), whence Classical Syriac ܐܳܕܰܪ (ʾāḏar). See the Syriac entry for more.
