Persian

Etymology

From Middle Persian [script needed] (šlwʾl /šalwār/, “trousers”), from Proto-Iranian *šarawāra, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *skelo- (“leg”) + *wero- (“to cover”).

For the first part compare شل‎ (šal, “thigh”) and Old Armenian շար-աւանդ (šar-awand), an Iranian borrowing; for the second part compare Old Armenian վարտիք (vartikʿ), also an Iranian borrowing.

Compare Iranian borrowings: Ancient Greek σαράβαρα (sarábara, “Scythian loose trousers”), σαράβαλλα (saráballa), Latin sarabala, sarabāra, Biblical Aramaic (Daniel) and Jewish Babylonian Aramaic סַרְבָּלָא‎ (sarbālā, “trousers; a type of outer garment”), Classical Syriac ܫܪܒܠܐ‎ (šarbālā, “trousers”), ܫܪܘܠܐ‎ du (šarwālē, “leggings”), Classical Mandaic ࡔࡀࡓࡅࡀࡋࡀ‎ (šaruala, “trousers”), Arabic سِرْوَال‎ (sirwāl), سِرْبَال‎ (sirbāl), شِرْوَال‎ (širwāl) (dialectal), شَرْوَال‎ (šarwāl) (modern), سِرْوَل‎ (sirwal), سِرْوِيل‎ (sirwīl).
