Coined by the Academy of the Hebrew Language in 1912, from Aramaic כַּלָּנִיתָא (kallānīṯā, “type of reed”), based on ܟܠܘܢܝܬܐ (kallōnīṯā, “anemone”), both apparent diminutives of כַּלְּתָא (kalləṯā, “bride”). Can be synchronically analyzed as כַּלָּה (kalá, “bride”) + ־ָן (-án) + ־ִית (-ít).
Noun
כַּלָּנִית • (kalanít) f (plural indefinite כַּלָּנִיּוֹת, singular construct כַּלָּנִית־, plural construct כַּלָּנִיּוֹת־)
- poppy anemone (Anemone coronaria)
- (taxonomy) a flower of the genus Anemone
