Etymology

The original spelling is արաւտ (arawt), probably from Proto-Indo-European *trh₂ǵ-ti-, a deverbative noun based on *treh₂ǵ-, whence արածեմ (aracem).[1][2]

According to Ałayan, the word contains the suffix -աւտ (-awt)[3], but this is considered improbable by Martirosyan[2].

Noun

արօտ (arōt)

  1. pasture, pastureland
  2. herbage, grass for grazing
