Etymology

A dialectal term, unattested in Old or Middle Armenian. The earliest attestation is in Vilotte's Latin–Armenian dictionary of 1714.[2] Recorded inter alia in the dialects of Yerevan, Tiflis and Karabakh, in the latter also as տա̈՛նդօ̈ռնը (tä́ndöṙnə), which may point to older *դանդուռն (*danduṙn).[3] Ačaṙean compares with Mush dialect տանդռնիկ (tandṙnik, a kind of wild edible green) and Yerevan dialect դանդռի ծաղիկ (dandṙi caġik, a kind of garden flower).[3] The plant name թանթռնիկ (tʻantʻṙnik) is probably the same word with the diminutive suffix -իկ (-ik), reflecting a Western dialect pronunciation.

The origin is unknown. Obviously connected with synonymous Georgian დანდური (danduri), Ingiloy dialect დანდრანუკა (dandranuḳa), Udi тӏаьнтӏоьр (ṭänṭör), the latter probably borrowed from the Karabakh dialect. Compare further Pashto تندولی (tandólaj, purslane).

According to Asatrian, who does not cite the related forms in other languages, probably a substrate term (from Hurrian?), as the ending -ուռ (-uṙ) shows; compare Hurrian -uri, -ori, attested in Old Armenian խնձոր (xnjor, apple) and սալոր (salor, plum).[4]
