azure[azure 词源字典]

azure: [14] Azure is of Persian origin. It comes ultimately from Persian lāzhuward, source also of the lazuli in lapis lazuli, a blue semiprecious stone (and azure originally meant ‘lapis lazuli’ in English). The Arabs borrowed the Persian term as (with the definite article al) allazward, which passed into Old Spanish as azur or azul. Old French borrowed azur and handed it on to English.
