Classical Syriac

Etymology 1

Related to Akkadian 𒍪𒌑𒁍 (/⁠zūpu⁠/), Hebrew אֵזוֹב (ʾēzṓḇ), Jewish Palestinian Aramaic אֵיזוֹבָא (ʾēzōḇa), and Ancient Greek ὕσσωπος (hússōpos) with its many European descendants.

Pronunciation

The unaspirated , foreign to Syriac phonology, is due to there being a Greek π (p) being rendered in the other word, so that the two words spelled the same got fused in pronunciation, both being considered of Greek origin by Syrians.
