تراتور

Ottoman Turkish

Alternative forms

تراطور‎, طراتور‎
ترتور‎ (teretor)

Etymology

Uncertain. Perhaps from Persian ‎ (târ o tur, “in pieces, piecemeal”).[1][2][3] Alternatively, from some derivative of Persian ‎ (tarre, tare, “garden herb”), perhaps Persian ‎ (tara-doğ, “herbs and sour milk”).[4] The attempt to derive from Pontic Greek ταραχτόν (tarachtón, “not very thick colostrum”)[5][6][7] is unconvincing if only because nothing in the distribution of the word and the history of this food points to Pontus.

Noun

تراتور • (tarator, terator, teratur)

tarator (a sauce of pounded nuts and oil, eaten with bread)
tarator (a kind of salad of chopped cucumber and curds, etc.)
