Old Armenian[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Usually considered of unknown origin.[1][2][3]
Probably a Semitic borrowing: compare Assyrian Neo-Aramaic ܟܡܝܫܐ (kmiša, “dried up, dry, shrivelled (of grapes in a drought)”),[4] ܟܡܫ (kamiš, “to become dry, become scorched, dehydrate; to fade, wither, shrivel up, wilt”).[5][6] Note that here k and š are both pronounced as an emphatic /t͡ʃ/.[7] Accordingly, these are usually transcribed as č̣mič̣a, č̣aməč̣.[8][9][10] Ačaṙyan treats the Assyrian Neo-Aramaic words as Armenian borrowings, but they have native origin from the Aramaic root ܟ-ܡ-ܫ (k-m-š, “to wither”),[11][12][13] whence Aramaic / Classical Syriac [script needed] (kmyš) / ܟܡܝܫܐ (kmyšʾ /kəmīšā/, “wrinkled”), Classical Syriac ܟܡܫܘܢܐ (kmšwnˀ /kamšōnē/, “grape seed, dried raisin”).
Noun[edit]
չամիչ • (čʻamičʻ)
Usage notes[edit]
According to Ačaṙean, ի չամչոյ մինչեւ ցթինն (i čʻamčʻoy minčʻew cʻtʻinn, “from the raisin to the grapeseed”) in Numbers 6:4 should be amended to ի չանչոյ մինչեւ ցթինն (i čʻančʻoy minčʻew cʻtʻinn, “from the grape pomace to the grapeseed”), because the Septuagint correspondent is στέμφυλον (stémphulon, “mass of pressed grapes”).
