√KLM
kilim, carpet, rug (usually long and narrow) – WehrCowan1979.
▪ From Tu kilim, from Pers gilīm ‘cover, blanket, bed cover’, akin to Aram galīmā, galīmtā, from Grk kálymma ‘coat, cover’, from Grk vb. kalýptō ‘to cover’ – NişanyanSözlük_30Jun2015.
▪ The Tu word is first attested around 1300, and in the Codex Cumanicus (1303).
▪ Not from Ar kalīm, but from the same Tu source is Engl kilim: from Tu kilim, from Pers gilīm ‘garment made of wool or goat hair, blanket, rug’; perh. akin to Akk gulēnu 1
and Aram glīmā ‘cloak’ – Huehnergard (in AHDEL, 5th ed., 2015).
