مو
See also: Variations of "mu"
مو - Arabic
Pronunciation
- IPA: /muː/
Noun
مُو • (mū) m
- meu, baldmoney (Meum athamanticum)
- Synonym: شِبِتّ بَرِّيّ (šibitt barriyy)
Usage notes
Presumably obsolete, as the range of the plant ends southwards to the East in Bulgaria and to the West in Al-Andalus, apocryphically Morocco, and as a learned borrowing only used in medieval pharmacology, found in authors like the Cordoban Maimonides. It is usually, even by the pharmacognosists, called inexactly شِبِتّ (šibitt, “dill”).
