Etymology

دِراسِيّ comes from the Arabic root د-ر-س (d-r-s), tied to the verb دَرَسَ, meaning to study or learn. From this root Arabic forms the noun دِراسة, study or studying. Adding the nisba suffix يّ, which turns a noun into a relational adjective, gives دِراسِيّ, meaning of or pertaining to study.
