الزمرد Emerald

-->
Etymology of Arabic words: the word الزمرد
(zoumouroud) means Emerald and is probable that it derives from the greek word σμαράγδι (smaragdi) or the older form σμάραγδος (smaragdos) which means the same and comes from the antiquity. In Turkish it is zümrüt and it is supported that it comes from Aramaic.
