Etymology 2

Inherited from Proto-Indo-European; in Middle Persian [Book Pahlavi needed] (syl) or Aramaic heterogram [script needed] (TWMʾ); often claimed to come from an Old Persian *θigraʰ, only imagined to be reflected in the month name Old Persian 𐎰𐎠𐎡𐎥𐎼𐎨𐎡𐏁 (Θāigraciš, literally “*the month of garlic-collecting”), while another suggestion sees the full term rather reflected by Proto-Turkic *sarmïsak (“garlic”) borrowed from Iranian.
