յանդուգն

Old Armenian

Etymology

Ačaṙean derives from յ- (y-) + ան- (an-) + *դուգն (*dugn), from Proto-Indo-European *dʰugʰ-, zero-grade of *dʰewgʰ- (to be strong, have force). The prefix ան- (an-) here is not the privative one. Among the cognates compare especially the family of English doughty.
