شرموطة

شَرْمُوطَة (noun)

Etymology: From شَرْمَطَ (šarmaṭa, “to shred”). Most Semitists agree that it is of non-Semitic origin; perhaps from Middle Persian [Book Pahlavi needed] (clm /⁠čarm⁠/, “a piece of skin, hide, or leather”) – see Persian چرم (čarm) –, perhaps conflated with Middle Persian [Book Pahlavi needed] (šlm /⁠šarm⁠/, “shame”). Compare Hebrew סְמַרְטוּט (s'martút, “rag”), Aramaic מַרְטוּטָא (marṭūṭā), סְמַרְטוּטָא (səmarṭūṭā, “coarse garment”), Classical Syriac ܡܪܛܘܛܐ (marṭūṭā, “cloak, mantle”).

Meaning: rag, shred, tatter; cuttings, strips, shreds of a victual; whore, slut
