çekim: çoğul alruinen
eş: alruinwortel., alruinmannetje
köken: From Middle Dutch alrune, possibly derived from Old High German alrūna, otherwise derived from a common source. The second element -ruin is held to be derived from Proto-Germanic *rūnō (“secret, mystery”), seemingly due to the plant's association with witchcraft.
köken: From Ancient Greek μᾰνδρᾰγόρᾱς (măndrăgórās), probably from a non-Indo-European Pre-Greek/substrate, or possibly from Old Persian *merdum gija (“plant of humans”).
