Etymology[edit]

From Ancient Greek ναύτης (naútēs, seaman) and ναυτίλος (nautílos, seaman; nautilus mollusc), possibly via Aramaic, compare the Aramaic borrowings with this ending نُمِّيّ (nummiyy) and سَكِّيّ (sakkiyy) or دُرْدِيّ (durdiyy), though seemingly an old loanword.

Noun[edit]

نُوتِيّ or نَوْتِيّ (nūtiyy or nawtiyym (plural نَوَاتِيّ (nawātiyy) or نُوتِيَّة (nūtiyya) or نَوْتِيَّة (nawtiyya))

  1. seaman, mariner, sailor
    Synonym: مَلَّاح (mallāḥ)
  2. nautilus, a marine mollusc of a spiral shell
