♦ Semantic value spectrum in ClassAr (acc. to BAH2008): ‘blue, to become blue; to pass through swiftly, to pass excrement’. – The term ʔazraq, which is usually translated as ‘blue’, in fact covers a range of colours in Arabic including grey, green, and white and also means purity of water.

▪ Out of the 5 values listed in DRS for the root ZRQ in Sem, 3 are represented in Ar, of which 2 have survived into MSA. But there are more than only those listed in DRS.
▪ ZRQ_1-4 [≙ DRS#ZRQ-1&2]: In DRS, zaraqa in the sense of ‘to drop excrement (bird)’ (ZRQ_1) is seen together with zaraqa ‘to throw, hurl; to hit, pierce, jab, bore’ (ZRQ_2) and even zawraq ‘small boat’ (ZRQ_4). The meaning of the root in Sem in general varies between ‘to sprinkle, scatter’ and ‘to hit (and hence also: pierce)’. For the 2-cons. root nucleus *ZR- from which this ZRQ can be seen as an extension in *‑ḳ (Ar ‑q), Ehret1989 assumes an original value of ‘to spill’. If this is true, the semantic development could be imagined to have been as follows: ‘to spill’ > ‘to sprinkle, scatter, disperse’ > ‘to drop; to throw, hurl’ > ‘to hit’ > ‘to pierce’. In contrast, Orel&Stolbova1994#2610 reconstruct a Sem *z˅r˅ḳ‑ ‘to dart’, which they derive (together with SaAf *ʒ˅rig‑ ‘to stir’ and LEC *ʒarug‑ / *ʒaruk‑ ‘to shift, push’, from AfrAs *ʒariḳ‑ / *ʒaruḳ‑ ‘to throw, push’). – Given that the original value of Ar ʔazraqᵘ (ZRQ_3 = DRS#ZRQ-2) was not ‘blue’ but rather ‘iridescent, shimmering, glittering, flashing’ (said of water, eyes of birds, metallic arrowheads, etc.), a relation between ‘to sprinkle > to throw/hurl > to hit’ and ‘to radiate, shimmer, glitter, flash’ (i.e., “sprinkle > throw/hurl > hit with” light) does not seem too unlikely.
▪ ZRQ_3 [≙ DRS#ZRQ-2] : The value ‘blue’ is a rather late development from an earlier ^†‘iridescent, shimmering, glittering, flashing’. With this, the value can be seen as originating in a figurative use of ZRQ_2 ‘to throw, hurl’ (sc. beams of light, to radiate), which in itself is based on ZRQ_1 ‘to spill, disperse’ (esp. excrements, said of birds).
▪ ZRQ_4 [treated within DRS#ZRQ-1] : The value ‘boat, rowboat, skiff’ seems to be figurative use: a small boat (which elsewhere may be likened to a nutshell) is called a ‘bowl, basin’ here (cf. Ar ^†mizraq ‘drinking cup, [Freytag1830:] crater, phiala’, Hbr mizrāq [Klein1987:] ‘bowl, basin’). The latter value seems to be derived from ‘to sprinkle’, the basic value inherent in ZRQ_1 and ZRQ_2 (and, indirectly, also ZRQ_3), see preceding paragraphs.
▪ ZRQ_5 [DRS: –] : from Pers zargūn ‘gold-coloured’ (composed of Pers zar ‘gold’ + gūn ‘colour’).
▪ ZRQ_6 [DRS: –] ^†zaraq ‘blindness’: essentially the same as ZRQ_3 which today mainly signifies ‘blue’ but originally just described s.th. ‘iridescent, shimmering, glittering, flashing’, a quality that also characterizes the eyes of a blind person.
▪ ZRQ_7 [≙ DRS#ZRQ-5] ^†zūraq ‘lie’: ?

▪ ZRQ_3 [= DRS #ZRQ-2] : In modAr, the sense of ‘blue’ is dominant in ʔazraqᵘ, but cf. e.g. Fischer1965 on earlier values in ClassAr. With these, the item is probably dependent on ZRQ_1/2, cf. above, section CONC. – NB in DRS : »Peut-être faut-il séparer le Ḥass ‘pie, bariolé, bigarré’ de la racine Ar et lier au [Berb] Tqblt izirig ‘ligne, rayures’, Tšlḥt azrirəg ‘rayure d’une étoffe’. – Par ailleurs on relève Tqblt zrurəg et ẓṛurəq ‘briller, étinceler’, ainsi que Mzab əzzərrag ‘bleu à rincer le linge’, emprunts à l’Ar.«
▪ ZRQ_4 [cf. also DRS #ZRQ-1] : As already mentioned above (section CONC), the Ar word for a small boat, zawraq, seems to be akin to Sem words for ‘to sprinkle’, hence also ‘to irrigate’ and ‘bowl’ (i.e., vessel for throwing or tossing a liquid). – According to PayneSmith1903, Syr zūrqā is from Ar (in DRS it is given as a genuine cognate).
▪ ZRQ_5 : From Pers zargūn ‘gold-coloured’, composed of Pers zar ‘gold’ (Av zar ‘gold’) + gūn ‘colour’ (EtymOnline ), akin to Aram zarag, zargūn ‘peony, peony-coloured’, Syr zrag ‘to glisten, be red’ (with wine, said of the eyes), zārgâ ‘wine colour (a colour betw. red and yellow), topaz, amethyst’ (PayneSmith1903).¹
▪ ZRQ_6 ^†zaraq ‘blindness’: belonging to ZRQ_3 which originally meant an ‘iridescence, shimmering, glittering, flashing’, that often also was ascribed to eyes, esp. those of birds, but evidently also to the eyes of blind persons.
▪ ZRQ_7 ^†zūraq ‘lie’: probably akin to one of the above, but semantics are obscure.

1. According to Nişanyan (22Dec2014, #zirkon), quoted also in Rolland2014a, Ar zarqūn is from Pers āzargūn ‘flame-coloured’, composed of Pers āẕar ‘fire’ + gūn ‘colour’.

√ZRQ

adj.

1 blue; 2 dark-coloured – WehrCowan1979.

▪ ‘Blue’ does not belong to the system of basic colour designations reconstructed (acc. to Kogan2011) by Bulakh for Sem (white ↗LBN, black ↗ẒLM, red ↗ʔDM, yellow-green ↗WRQ).
▪ BAH2008: »The term ʔazraq, which is usually translated as ‘blue’, in fact covers a range of colours in Ar including grey, green, and white and also means purity of water.«
▪ Fischer1965, 47 ff.: The original meaning of the adj. is ‘iridescent, shimmering, glittering, flashing’ (schillernd, schimmernd, glitzernd, blinkend, said of water, eyes of birds, metallic arrowheads,…), cf. also ^†ʔazraqī ‘(a certain type of) falcon’ (so called because of the iridescence of the bird’s eyes), or ^†zaraq ‘blindness’ (so called after the iridescence of blind people’s eyes); cf. ZRQ_3 and ZRQ_6 in “root” entry ↗ZRQ.
▪ Given the original value just mentioned, a relation between this ‘iridescence, shimmering, glittering’ and the semantic complex treated s.v. ↗zaraqa does not seem too unlikely: the iridescence of a water surface, of eyes, or of metallic arrowheads was perh. perceived as a kind of ‘sprinkling’ of light, or ‘throwing/hurling’ and ‘hitting’ the observer by the beams/flashes of light emitted by the glittering object. The value could thus be seen as having emerged from a figurative use of ↗zaraqa ‘to throw, hurl’ (ZRQ_2), which in itself is based on zaraqa ‘to spill, disperse’ (esp. excrements, said of birds = ZRQ_1). – Cf. also DISC in “root” entry ↗ZRQ.

√ZRQ, ZWRQ

boat, rowboat, skiff – WehrCowan1979.

▪ In DRS, zawraq is treated together with ↗zaraqa. If this is correct, the value ‘boat, rowboat, skiff’ can be explained as figurative use: a small boat (which elsewhere is often likened to a nutshell) is called a ‘bowl, basin’ here (cf. Ar ^†mizraq ‘drinking cup, [Freytag1830:] crater, phiala’, Hbr mizrāq ‘bowl, basin’). The latter value seems to be derived from ‘to sprinkle’, the basic value inherent in zaraqa. One could also imagine the small boat being likened to s.th. that is ‘thrown around’ or ‘scattered’ (by the waves).
