Etymology
Wurūd is the verbal noun of the Form I verb warada, whose base sense is to come down to a water source. Over time the meaning widened from the physical act of reaching water to arriving or coming in more generally, and it settled into formal Arabic as the standard word for the arrival of a letter, a shipment, or a piece of news. It follows the fu'ūl pattern common for verbal nouns of this verb shape.
