رخت

Where it comes from

Borrowed; considered even by the medievals as from Persian رَخْت (raxt). Though the term could be explained from an Aramaic descendant of Proto-Semitic *raḥat- (“flat inner of the hand”) transferred to refer to various flat tools, if the Arabic had been borrowed directly it would probably have become **رَحْت (**raḥt).

noun رَخْت · raḵt · رُخُوت · الرَّخْت

apparatus, goods and chattels of a household
apparel, vestment, plumage (including of a bird)
rugs, blankets, even horse blankets

In English

plumage feathers covering the body of a bird collectively
