• كُسْب (kusb), كُزْب (kuzb), كُسْبَا (kusbā), كُسْبَج (kusbaj)

Partially from Persian کسپه (kospe) and partially from Aramaic כוספא / ܟܘܣܦܐ (kuspā), ܟܘܨܦܐ (kuṣpā), ܟܘܣܒܐ (kusbā), from which first also Turkish küspe (“pulp, residue of seeds”), ultimately from Akkadian 𒆪𒊻𒁍 (ku-us-pu /⁠kuspu⁠/), also 𒁺𒋢 (kup-su /⁠kupsu⁠/), 𒆠𒄑𒁍 (ki-is-pu /⁠kispu, kisbu⁠/, “husks, bran; residue of pressed dates or sesame etc.”). The meaning of a date sort possibly is to be separated as belonging to قَسْب (qasb, “dried dates”).
