Etymology

Inherited from Arabic رَسُول (rasūl). Called an “arabism” by Falzon, but this may mean merely that the word was already highly archaic in the mid-19th century. At any rate it was inherited, not introduced later by Muslim captives, because old sources show that the place Għajn Rasul was always understood as “Spring of the Apostle [Paul]”.

Pronunciation

  • Rhymes: -uːl

Noun

rasul m (plural rsul or rsiel or rsajjal or irsla or rosol)
