Borrowed from Classical Syriac ܕܝܪܐ (dayrā) which generally means “dwelling” and specifically “cloister”, from the Syriac root ܕ ܘ ܪ relating to dwelling, originally parallel to دَار (dār, “dwelling; abode”) and دَوَّارة (dawwāra, “home; quarter”) from the root د و ر (d w r) bearing meanings of “circling, going about”.
