Message definition (Cumin)
== Etymology and pronunciation==
The term comes via [[Middle English]] ''comyn'', from [[Old English]] ''cymen'' (which is cognate with [[Old High German]] ''kumin'') and [[Old French]] cummin, both from the Latin term {{lang|la|cuminum}}. This in turn comes from the [[Ancient Greek]] {{lang|grc|κύμινον}} ({{Lang|grc-latn|kúminon}}), a [[Semitic languages|Semitic]] borrowing related to [[Hebrew language|Hebrew]] {{lang|he|{{Script|Hebrew|כמון}}|rtl=yes}} ({{Lang|he-latn|kammōn}}) and [[Arabic]] {{lang|ar|{{Script|Arabic|كمون}}|rtl=yes}} ({{Lang|ar-latn|kammūn}}). All of these ultimately derive from [[Akkadian language|Akkadian]] {{lang|akk|𒂵𒈬𒉡}} ({{Lang|akk-latn|kamūnu}}).

Etymology and pronunciation

The term comes via Middle English comyn, from Old English cymen (which is cognate with Old High German kumin) and Old French cummin, both from the Latin term cuminum. This in turn comes from the Ancient Greek κύμινον (kúminon), a Semitic borrowing related to Hebrew כמון (kammōn) and Arabic كمون (kammūn). All of these ultimately derive from Akkadian 𒂵𒈬𒉡 (kamūnu).
