Middle Persian

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

From Arabic طَيِّء (ṭayyiʔ, name of an Arab clan). Compare Classical Syriac ܛܝܝܐ (Ṭayyāyāʾ, Arab). Compare the truncated Arabic form طَيّ (ṭayy) with Persian ری (ray, Ray) and رازی (râzi, a person from Ray). More at Tajiks.

Akin to Sogdian 𐽂𐼰𐼵𐼷𐼸 (tʾzyk /⁠tāžīk⁠/, Arab), 𐽂𐼰𐼵𐼷𐼸𐼰𐼻𐼸 (tʾzykʾnk, Arabic), 𐫎𐫀𐫋𐫏𐫃𐫀𐫗𐫏𐫏 (ṯʾjygʾnyy), borrowed from Parthian [Term?] (/⁠*tāžīg⁠/, Arab).

For the sense "swift", compare Middle Persian [script needed] (tʾhtn' /⁠tāxtan⁠/), [script needed] (tʾc- /⁠tāz-⁠/, cause to run, flow; chase; pour).
