Etymology

تَجْدِيد is the verbal noun (masdar) of the Form II verb جَدَّدَ, "to renew" or "to make new." Both trace to the triliteral Semitic root ج-د-د, whose core sense is newness or freshness. The same root gives Arabic جَدِيد, "new." No confirmed Indo-European cognates exist for this Semitic root.
