إبريز

Borrowed from Latin obryzum (“pure gold”), from Ancient Greek ὄβρυζον (óbruzon), from ὄβρυζος (óbruzos, “pure”), from ὄβρυζα (óbruza, “assaying of gold”), ultimately from Hurrian 𒂁𒄷𒌋𒌒𒊒𒍑𒄭 (DUG.ḫu-u-ub-ru-uš-ḫi /⁠ḫubrušḫi⁠/, “crucible, smelter, melting-pot”), likely via the route of Hittite 𒄷𒌒𒊒𒍑𒄭 (ḫu-up-ru-uš-ḫi /⁠ḫuprušḫi-⁠/). Borrowings also attested in Jewish Literary Aramaic אובריזין (ʾaḇrōzōn), Akkadian 𒄷𒌒𒊒𒍑𒄷 (ḫu-up-ru-uš-ḫu /⁠ḫuprušḫu⁠/, “earthen, metal, precious, container”), and Ugaritic 𐎃𐎁𐎗𐎘 (ḫbrṯ, “stew-pot”).
