Old Armenian
Etymology
Closely related to Old Georgian რეზი (rezi)[1][2] and together with it borrowed from an unidentified Middle Iranian word probably descended from Proto-Iranian *wrays- (“to turn, spin”), from Proto-Indo-European *wreyḱ-, whence for example Zazaki rês (“woolen yarn”), Northern Kurdish rîs, rês (“woolen yarn, woolen thread”), Central Kurdish ریس (rîs, “thread, string”), Khwarezmian (rys, “thread”), Persian ریسمان (rismân, “cord, string”), رشته (rešte, “thread, string”). For these and other forms see Cheung and ESIJa,[3][4] without the Armenian and Georgian. For the voiced final consonant compare ասպարէզ (asparēz), if from the same root. The ե- (e-) is prothetic as in other Iranian borrowings with an initial r-, e.g. երազ (eraz), երակ (erak), երագ (erag).
Noun
երէզ • (erēz)
- band, bandage
6th–7th centuries,
Basil of Caesarea,
Yałags gohutʻean 5:
[5]- Եւ մեռեալն արտաքոյ լինէր, եւ կապեալն զնայր: Սքանչելիք ի զարմացմանն․ երիզովք կապեալ զոտս, եւ ոչ խափանեալ առ շարժումն։
- Ew meṙealn artakʻoy linēr, ew kapealn znayr: Skʻančʻelikʻ i zarmacʻmann; erizovkʻ kapeal zots, ew očʻ xapʻaneal aṙ šaržumn.
- Jam mortuus revocabatur ad vitam: jam alligatus ambulabat. Inest miraculum in miraculo. Pedes ligabantur institis, nec tamen a motu prohibebatur.
Usage notes
- Attested only in instrumental plural երիզովք (erizovkʻ), whence NHB incorrectly back-formed the nominative singular as *երիզ (*eriz).[6] This ghost form has been copied over into other dictionaries and learnedly adopted in the modern literary language.
- In Basil, translates Ancient Greek κειρίαι (keiríai).
