Etymology

edit

    Has been explained as coming from در (dar, door) +‎ واز (wāz, open), with the later word واز (wāz) (Archaic in Iranian Persian) coming from Middle Persian 𐫀𐫁𐫀𐫝 (ʾbʾc /⁠abāz⁠/, back, again, re-).

    Though it may have other origins, compare similar words in Semitic: Akkadian 𒉣𒇬 (tarbāṣu, cowshed; courtyard), Aramaic תַּרְחִּיצָא (tarbīṣā) / תַּרְחָּצָא (ṭarbāṣā) / ܬܰܪܒܳܨܳܐ (ṭarbāṣā, courtyard), Ugaritic 𐎚𐎗𐎁𐎕 (trbṣ, stable), which is a formation that belongs to the Proto-Semitic verb *rabaṣ́- used for the sitting of an animal, on which root see Arabic ر ب ض (r-b-ḍ).

    Possibly connected to Middle Persian [Book Pahlavi needed] (dlpʾs /⁠darbās⁠/, palace) and the Iranian borrowings: Old Armenian դարպաս (darpas), դարապաս (darapas), Georgian დარბაზი (darbazi, palace).
