մոզանամ

From *մոզ (*moz, “great, much, mighty, increased”), of unknown origin, +‎ -ան- (-an-). Jahukyan proposes an Iranian derivation: compare Avestan 𐬨𐬀𐬰- (maz-, “large, great”), Sogdian (mzʾγ-), Northern Kurdish mezin.

մոզանամ • (mozanam)

1. (transitive) to become large or mighty, to increase

The evidence is scarce, and there are reading variants մողացեալ (mołacʻeal) and մոռացեալ (moṙacʻeal). The word should be regarded as uncertain.
