پرونده

Persian

Etymology

Composed of (parwand) + (-e, “noun making suffix”), the former part is from the present stem of Middle Persian [script needed] (plwstn, plwnd /⁠parwastan, parwand⁠/, “to enclose, to surround, to contain to comprise”). The contemporary meanings are a 1900s purist replacement for (dosiye), still used to an extent (especially in Afghanistan).
