տիվիթ

From Ottoman Turkish دویت (divit), ultimately from Arabic دَوَاة (dawāh).

• (Western Armenian, standard) IPA^(key): [divítʰ]

տիվիթ • (tivitʻ) (Nor Nakhichevan, obsolete)

1. inkstand, a pencase with inkwell, worn in the girdle by scribes

   Synonyms: թանաքաման (tʻanakʻaman), գրչաման (grčʻaman)

Malxasjan glosses դիվիթ (divitʻ) with "ink" and դիվիթաման (divitʻaman) (containing աման (aman)) with "inkstand". But this contradicts all other dictionaries which know only the sense "inkstand" for the first word and do not know the second word at all.
