|etymtx=Grammatical information: f.<br />Meaning: [[lazurite]], "sapphire" (Thphr., LXX etc.; on the meaning Schrader-Nehring Reallex. 1, 212).<br />Derivatives: <b class="b3">σαπφείρ-ιον</b> (<b class="b3">-ππ-</b>) n. <b class="b2">colouring made of σ.</b> (pap.), <b class="b3">-ινος</b> <b class="b2">made of σ.</b> (pap., Philostr. a.o.).<br />Origin: LW [a loanword which is (probably) not of Pre-Greek origin] Semit.?<br />Etymology: Semit. LW [loanword]; cf. Hebr. [[sappīr]]. Further connection with OInd. (lex.) <b class="b2">śani-priya-</b> n. name of a dark stone (since A. Müller BB 1, 281) seems quite doubtful. However, in Semit. the word is rather a loanword (Masson, Emprunts sémit. 66 n. 2). --The word looks Pre-Greek (<b class="b3">-πφ-</b>, <b class="b3">-ειρ-ος</b>). Through Lat. sapphirus the word came in the European languages, Eng. sapphire etc.
