▪ Accord. to Rolland2014a a borrowing from oPers ǧadd ‘road’, related to Av yātem and Skr yātam ‘id.’ – Cf., however, ↗^†ǦDː(ǦDD)_8 ‘mark, dividing line’, with the extended meaning of ‘track, beaten way, path, road’ (prob. < ↗^†ǦDː(ǦDD)_7 ‘to cut, cut off’, thus orig. a path *“cut” by the feet of men and hoofs of animals)’; if this etymology should be valid, ǧāddaẗ might be genuine Ar (and, hence, a loan in Pers?), a PA I signifying a main axis in a town/city that clearly *‘cuts’, i.e., divides it into distinct sectors/quarters.
