بوستان · بُسْتَان — garden, orchard

Persian → ArabicCertainnoun · Nature · common

This one went the other way: from Persian into Arabic.

Arabic

بُسْتَان
bustān

/bustaːn/

In Arabic

garden, orchard

Persian

بوستان
bustān

/bustɒn/

In Persian

garden, orchard

Persian says today: باغ bāq

Note. Middle Persian bōstān 'place of fragrance' (bōy + -stān). In Persian it is now literary; in Arabic it is the everyday word for an orchard.
