different between valerian vs valerene
valerian
English
Etymology
From Old French valeriane or Medieval Latin valeri?na, a reinterpretation of what is found as German Baldrian after val?re (“to be powerful”) or also the gentilic name Valerius, which is seemingly borrowed in the Dark Age period from the late 6th to early 8th century from Turkic or Proto-Mongolic, when the Pannonian Avars were direct neighbours to the Germans, notably also present in Hungarian bojtorján (“burdock”), ultimately from Proto-Mongolic, reflected as
Middle Mongolian ??????????? (bal?ir?an-a, “false hellebore; angelica”), composed as ?????? (bal?ir, “infant; young, tender, fresh, rank”) + plant name suffix ????? (-?ana),
Mongolian ?????????? (balchirgana, “false hellebore; angelica”), composed as ?????? (balchir, “infant; young, tender, fresh, rank”) + plant name suffix -???? (-gana).
See Ottoman Turkish ???????? (bald?ran, “hemlock”) for Turkic cognates.
