Saffron,Georgia price supplier

The English word  saffron  stems from the Latin word  safranum  via the 13th-century Old French term  safran . Meanwhile,  Safranum  derives via Persian. Some argue that it ultimately came from the Arabic word , which is itself derived from the adjective( afar , "yellow"). However, some give an alternative derivation arguing that is the arabicized form of the Persian word - "having golden stigmas". Latin  safranum  is also the source of the Italian  zafferano  and Spanish  azafrán  etc.  Crocum  in Latin is a Semitic loan word derived from Aramaic  kurkema  via Arabic  kurkum , and Greek  krokos .
