تَرْبِيَة is the verbal noun of رَبَّى, the Form II (intensive/causative) verb built on the root ر ب و/ي, meaning to grow or increase. Form II turns that basic sense into a causative act: to make something grow, that is, to raise or nurture it. The same root gives رَبّ (Lord, Master), someone who sustains and cares for his subjects, so the word family ties parenting, teaching, and lordship to one core idea of nurture.
