Etymology
Apparently calque of Classical Syriac ܐܪܝܐ ܕܓܘܡܐ (ʾaryā də-gūmā, “broomrape”, literally “lion of the bean”), Classical Syriac ܐܪܝܐ (ʾaryā, “lion”) being fitter for transferred use and also encountered in other plant names.
Pronunciation
Noun
أَسَد الْعَدَس • (ʔasad al-ʕadas) m
- broomrape (Orobanche)
- Synonyms: جَعْفِيل (jaʕfīl), هَالُوك (hālūk), خَانِق الْكَرْسَنَّة (ḵāniq al-karsanna)
a. 1248, ابن البيطار [Ibn al-Bayṭār], الجامع لمفردات الأدوية والأغذية [De simplicibus medicinis opus magnum]:أسد العدس: هو الجعفيل وباليونانية أوروبنخي، وسنذكره فيما بعد وسمي بذلك لأنه إذا ثبت بين العدس أهلكه كله.- Broomrape: It is جَعْفِيل (jaʕfīl, “broomrape”) and in Greek ὀροβάγχη (orobánkhē); we will mention it later.
