أس
Arabic
Alternative forms
- إِسّ (ʔiss)
Etymology
From the root ء س س (ʔ-s-s). The Arabic root is weakly developed; thus is concluded that all other words in it are denominal from this noun and this noun is, similarly to other architectural terms, borrowed from Aramaic אוּשָּׁא (ʾūšā, “foundation”), from Akkadian 𒀳 (/uššu/, “foundation”).
Noun
أُسّ or أَسّ • (ʔuss or ʔass) m (plural إِسَاس (ʔisās) or آسَاس (ʔāsās))
