Arabic

سُور

Etymology 1

Argued to be a loan from Aramaic שׂוּרָא‎ / ܫܘܪܐ‎ (šūrā), but other cognates such as Sabaean 𐩣𐩬𐩪𐩥𐩧𐩩‎ (mns¹wrt, “walls”) and Tigre ሶር (sor, “partition wall”) (unless that form is itself borrowed from Arabic) suggest that it may in fact be inherited.

Noun

سُور • (sūr) m (plural أَسْوَار‎ (ʔaswār) or سِيرَان‎ (sīrān))

  1. wall that encloses and protects a building
