Old Armenian
Etymology
Borrowing from Middle Iranian *čakundar, the ending contaminated with դեղ (deł, “herb”).[1][2][3][4] See Persian چغندر (čoğondar) for more.
Middle Armenian ճակն (čakn, “beet”) and dialectal ճակն-բույս (čakn-buys), ճակն-խոտ (čakn-xot, “names of certain plants”) given by Haybusak,[5] if secure, should be explained as late back-formations from ճակնդեղ (čakndeł) by folk etymology.[1]
On the other hand, based on the old attestation in Armenian and the supposed independent existence of ճակն (čakn), Ačaṙean is inclined to derive the Iranian words from Armenian,[6] but this is rejected by Asatryan.[7]
Noun
ճակնդեղ • (čakndeł)
- beet, Beta vulgaris (plant); beetroot
- Synonym: բանջար (banǰar)
