ցօղուն

• ցաւղուն (cʻawłun), ցողուն (cʻołun)
• ցօղ (cʻōł), ցաւղ (cʻawł), ցող (cʻoł)

The original spelling is ցաւղուն (cʻawłun), of uncertain origin. Has been considered an inheritance from Proto-Indo-European, as a cognate of Ancient Greek καλάμη (kalámē) or of Latin caulis and Ancient Greek καυλός (kaulós), but there are phonetic irregularities in both cases.

1. stalk, stem, blade (of a plant)

• → Armenian: ցողուն (cʻoġun) (learned)
