دراق
Arabic
دُرَّاق
Etymology
From Classical Syriac ܕܘܪܩܝܢܐ (dōraqqīnā), from Ancient Greek δωράκινον (dōrákinon), from Latin dūracinum, nominative neuter singular of dūracinus (“hard-berried”), from dūrus (“hard”), which is applied for peaches that are firm-fleshed and cling to the stone – clingstones as distinguished from freestones – and are apt to be conserved rather than to be eaten. Such peaches are called to this day in German Härtlinge (literally “hardlings”) from hart (“hard”) as distinguished from Kerngeher (literally “kern-goers”).
