ف خ ر

Arabic

Etymology

Owning the lack of Semitic cognates and the narrow meaning, probably denominal from فَخْر (faḵr, “boast”), the originally most common word in the root formula, borrowed from a descendant Proto-Iranian *huHarnā́h (“splendour, glory”), although it could stand in variation with ف ح ش (f-ḥ-š) as حَفَرَ (ḥafara) with حَفَشَ (ḥafaša).

Root

ف خ ر • (f-ḵ-r)

  1. related to vainglory
