Etymology
The word derives from the triliteral root t-j-r, meaning trade or commerce. It is built on the nisba pattern faʿāliyy, which turns the noun tijāra (trade) into a relational adjective meaning of or relating to trade. The root itself is old Semitic and appears across the region's trading languages.
