Classical Syriac

Etymology

From a Parthian compound reflecting the descendant of Proto-Iranian *upári (“over”) and the source of Classical Syriac ܙܢܩܐ (zanqā, “long boot”), Imperial Latin zanca (“a kind of Parthian shoe”) etc., semantically also close in Old Armenian զանգապան (zangapan); maybe also connected to ܙܢܩܐ (zanqā, “chin”) if employed for a neck-armour or collar; surely also reinterpreted by the Syriac suppletive nisba ܒܪ (bar, literally “son of”) and hence occasionally written apart.
