Etymology of adarga

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

In the article it is stated that adarga comes from a Berber word meaning oryx. I couldn't find any source supporting this etymology. Everywhere else, included the Wiktionary page for adarga, mentions the Arabic word "daraqa" from Persian "darice" as the source for adarga. I think we should review the etymology and add a reliable source. Jordiuly (talk) 17:28, 17 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
