ترجمه به فارسی
- واژهنامه · French & English to Persian Epistemological Dictionary elixir borrowed from Old French "elissir" with the same meaning. French inherited the word from Medieval Latin elixir, borrowed in turn from Arabic al-'iksir : al "the" + 'iksir "elixir." Arabic probably borrowed the word from Greek xerion, "powder used for drying wounds" from xeros "dry." "Xeros," of course, you recognize from "Xerox," the company that made the first dry copier.
