Etymology

سَجَّل is a Form II verb built on the noun سِجِلّ (sijill), a register, ledger, or official record. The verb therefore means to enter something into such a record. Some philologists trace سِجِلّ itself to Latin sigillum, a seal or small image, borrowed through Greek into Arabic, though this is disputed and the root may be native Semitic.
