Etymology

أَسْهَل is the elative (comparative and superlative) form built from the triliteral root س-ه-ل, which carries the sense of being easy, smooth, and level. It follows the standard أَفْعَل pattern that Arabic uses to form comparatives. The same root gives the noun سَهْل for a flat plain, ground that is easy to cross.
