Where it comes from

Disputed etymology:

*Borrowed from Classical Syriac ܡܪܓܐ (margā), from Parthian [Term?] (/⁠marγ⁠/, “meadow”), from earlier [Term?] (/⁠marg⁠/), from Avestan 𐬨𐬀𐬭𐬆𐬖𐬁 (mar^əγā); cognates with Persian راغ (râġ, “meadow”), Middle Persian lʾg (/⁠rag⁠/, “meadow, pasture”), more distantly Sanskrit मार्ग (mārga, “route, path, way, passage, track”), and the borrowed Armenian մարգ (marg).

*From Proto-Afroasiatic *marag- (“field, grassland”), found in Dangaléat mórgó (“field”), Oromo marga (“grass”), and Akkadian 𒈥𒄖 (/⁠margû⁠/, “topographic term, field, meadow-lands, grasslands”) attested since the Old Babylonian period.
