Latin

Etymology 1

Might be derived from Ancient Greek ????? (rhódon), but some of the details remain mysterious. One possible way: from Oscan, from Ancient Greek ????? (rhódon) (Aeolic ?????? (wródon)), from Old Persian *w?da- (“flower”) (compare Avestan ????????????????????????-? (var^??a-), Sogdian ward, Parthian wâr, late Middle Persian gwl (gul), Persian ??? (gul), and Middle Iranian borrowings including Old Armenian ???? (vard), Aramaic ????????? (ward?) / ????? (ward?), Arabic ???????? (warda), Hebrew ?????? (wére?)), from Proto-Indo-European *wr?d?os (“sweetbriar”) (compare Old English word (“thornbush”), Latin rubus (“bramble”), Albanian hurdhe (“ivy”)). Possibly ultimately a derivation from a verb for "to grow" only attested in Indo-Iranian (*Hwardh-, compare Sanskrit vardh-, with relatives in Avestan).
