Folio § jiyan
Jiyan
Hayat
İsmin hikâyesi
Jiyan is the word for the whole of life — not the breath alone, but what does the breathing. The root is Indo-European gʷeih₃-. As a given name it is unisex — because life is for everyone.
Etimoloji
Kök: jî- ‘to live’ · Kurmancî
Jiyan descends from Indo-Iranian gʷeih₃- (to live), the same root behind Avestan jīi- and Sanskrit jīv-. In Kurmancî the verb is jîn / jiyîn (to live); jiyan is the abstract noun. The slogan Jin, Jiyan, Azadî deliberately puts these three roots in a row.
