Etymology

From the root ق م ر (q m r). The Arabic word for the moon is alone in the Semitic languages and of unknown origin. Possible distant relationship with Akkadian 𒄣𒈠𒊒𒌑 (qu-ma-ru-u₂ /⁠qummārû⁠/, “to be naked, exposed; to have leprosy, to have mold or fungus, to change in color, to be splotched with white, to be dazzling or whitened; also a designation of sheep”) as the Arabic term originally referred to the moon at any time other than the beginning and end of the month without light, the illuminated spotted surface of the moon before it is obscured again.
