The word of “alchemy” remembers the golden age of oriental flourishing of the chemical and
medicinal sciences. In this paper, we have reviewed some of these words of oriental origin, including Arabic,
Persian, Sanskrit, Hindi, Hebrew and Syriac. Some words have been passed through from one language to
another. These borrowings are mentioned as a history of the words. These descriptions may be useful for full
comprehension of the current meanings and the exact original meanings of the chemical names, especially for
the students of related fields.
Key words: Arabic, chemicals, classical medicines, etymology, Islamic medicine, Persian, pharmacy
