tzìpiri

Sardinian

Tzipiri.

Alternative forms

cìpari, tzìpari, itzìpiri

Etymology

Borrowed from a hypothetical Punic *𐤆𐤁𐤓‎ (*zbr /zibbir/, “rosemary”), found in Pseudo-Apuleius' Herbarius [c. VI century A.D.] in Latin script as zibbir.[1] There is no doubt that the word is of Semitic origin, but has very few cognates. The closest of them appears to be Classical Syriac ܙܒܘܪܐ‎ (zbwrʾ, “thyme”, pl.), which, despite its phonetic similarity with the Sardinian word, has a different semantic value.[2] Compare also Akkadian 𒌑𒈛𒈥𒌅 (^U₂LUḪ.MAR.TU /šibburratu, sibbirru, sinpirru/, “date palm; aromatic herb”) and 𒍝𒄠𒁍𒊒𒊬 (za-am-bu-ru^SAR /zambūru/, “thyme”),[2][3] all of which are probably akin to Sardinian.

Beyond Semitic, see also Ancient Greek σισύμβριον (sisúmbrion, “watercress”), which is likely a reduplicated form belonging to the same word family.
