Word origin
From خَرَطَ (ḵaraṭa, “to peel or strip, to pare, to make sheets (out of bark)”); with phono-semantic matching with Latin charta, from Ancient Greek χάρτης (khártēs), in that sense a doublet of قِرْطَاس (qirṭās). Compare Phoenician 𐤇𐤓𐤈𐤉𐤕 (ḥrṭyt), interpreted as “something written”, cognate with Biblical Hebrew חֶרֶט (ḫereṭ, “stylus; style of writing”).
