Message definition (Illicium verum)
The name "badian" appears to derive, via French {{Lang|fr|badiane}}, from the apparently descriptive [[Chinese language|Chinese]] name for it, {{Lang|zh|八角}}, {{Lang-zh|p=bājiǎo}}, lit. "eight horns". However, a derivation from the [[Persian language|Persian]] {{lang|fa|[[wikt:بادیان|بادیان]]}} {{Transliteration|fa|bādiyān}}'','' "[[fennel]]", exists, with the [[Oxford English Dictionary]] indicating that its origin before that is unknown.
