Definitions and meaning of daric

daric

English

Etymology

From Ancient Greek δᾱρεικός (dāreikós), from an Old Persian word related to 𐎭𐎼𐎴𐎹 (d-r-n-y /⁠daraniya-⁠/, “gold”), from *dari- (“golden”) (compare Avestan 𐬰𐬀𐬌𐬭𐬌 (zairi, “yellowish, golden”)), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰelh₃- (“gleam, yellow”). Compare Aramaic ܕܪܝܟܘܢܐ (drykwnʾ), Classical Syriac ܕܪܝܼܟܘܿܢܐ (darykwnʾ), Biblical Hebrew אֲדַרְכּוֹן (adarkon) and Parthian 𐫅𐫀𐫡𐫏𐫃 (dʾryg /⁠dārīg⁠/, “gold coin, Dareikos”). Doublet of gold and yellow.

Considered by classical authors to be from Δαρεῖος (Dareîos, “Darius”) who standardized the coinage as such, but this is a folk etymology.

Noun

daric (plural darics)

  1. A gold coin from Persian Empire, introduced by Darius the Great (522-486 BC) and used until Alexander the Great's invasion (330 BC).
