Old Armenian
Etymology
Borrowed Middle Persian 𐭣𐭧𐭩𐭰 (dḥyc /dahīč/). Related to Classical Syriac ܕܚܫܐ (daḥšā), also from Iranian. In view of Aramaic [script needed] (dḥšpṭˀ, “an epithet of Nergal (=chief judge or the like)”),[1] Old Armenian դահճապետ (dahčapet, “chief guard, executioner”) is probably wholly borrowed from Iranian, rather than formed within Armenian with պետ (pet).
