Etymology

From older قَلْح (qalḥ), from قِلَحْلَاح (qilaḥlāḥ), from Classical Syriac ܩܠܚܠܚܐ (qlaḥlāḥā, giant fennel), or the first form is directly from a specialized meaning of the source word this is augmented from, קַלְחָא (qalḥā), קוּלְחָא (qulḥā), קִילְחָא (qilḥā, stalk, stem). Compare also لَحْلَاح (laḥlāḥ, Colchicum spp.) to which in turn a general meaning of the augmentative form has lead.
