Etymology

[edit]

Inherited from Middle Persian [script needed] (kwp-tn' /⁠Kōftan, kōb-⁠/, beat, pound, trash) + Middle Persian [script needed] (-ytn' /⁠-īdan⁠/, a suffix forming secondary infinitives), from Proto-Iranian *kaup- (to pound, beat), which appears to be exclusively Iranian. See also کوفتن (kuftan, to break, bruise).
