The word "paradise" originates from the Old #Persian term pairi-daêza, meaning "walled enclosure" or "garden.

"This term is composed of pairi, meaning "around," and daêza, meaning "wall" or "to build". The #Greek adaptation paradeisos referred to royal parks and was later used in biblical texts to describe the #Garden of #Eden. Over time, it evolved into various languages, including #Latin paradisus and Old #French paradis, before entering #English.
