Etymology

حَرارَة comes from the Semitic root ḥ-r-r, which carries the sense of being hot or burning. It is an abstract noun built on the pattern faʿāla, so it names the quality of heat itself. The same root gives حارّ, 'hot,' and حَرّ, 'heat.' Related forms appear in other Semitic languages, such as Hebrew ḥārar, 'to burn or be scorched.'
