英语词源

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.
=> lapis lazuli - azure (n.)
- "sky-blue color," early 14c., from Old French azur, asur, a color name, from a false separation of Arabic (al)-lazaward "lapis lazuli," as though the -l- were the French article l'. The Arabic name is from Persian lajward, from Lajward, a place in Turkestan, mentioned by Marco Polo, where the stone was collected.
