Talmud-related
|Tal-mud-re-lat-ed|
/ˈtæl.məd rɪˈleɪ.tɪd/
related to the Talmud
Etymology
'Talmud-related' originates from Modern English, specifically the compound of 'Talmud' (Hebrew 'תלמוד' 'talmud'), where the Hebrew root 'למד' (lamad) meant 'to learn', and 'related' from the English past participle of 'relate' (from Latin 'relatus').
'Talmud' was borrowed from Hebrew 'talmud' into Medieval Latin and then entered English as 'Talmud'; 'related' developed from Latin 'referre' -> past participle 'relatus', passing into Old/Middle English forms before becoming modern 'related', and the compound 'Talmud-related' arose in Modern English to describe things connected with the Talmud.
Initially 'talmud' meant 'study' or 'learning' in Hebrew, later becoming the title for the corpus of rabbinic writings known as 'the Talmud'; consequently the compound 'Talmud-related' came to mean 'pertaining to that corpus or its subject matter'.
