Persian
Etymology
From Middle Persian 𐭬𐭩𐭥𐭪 (mēwag, “fruit”), and within Iranian, related to Manichaean Middle Persian 𐫖𐫏𐫇 (myw /mēw/), Baluchi نیوَگ (nēwag, “fruit”), and Parthian 𐫖𐫏𐫃𐫅 (mygd /miɣẟ/) and 𐫖𐫏𐫃𐫅𐫃 (mygdg /miɣẟag/, “fruit”).
The term is traditionally derived from Proto-Iranian *madvī- and further from Proto-Indo-European *médʰu (“honey, wine, mead”). However, Henning rejects this derivation, instead deriving the proto-form as *migda- and taking it as borrowed from Proto-Semitic *m-g-d- (“fruit”).[1]

- ز آن نداری میوهای مانند بید
کآبرو بردی پی نان سپید- za ān na-dārī mēwa-ē mānand-i bēd
k-ābirū burdi pay-i nān-i sapēd - Like the willow, thou hast no fruit,
because thou hast lost thine honour for the sake of white bread.
- za ān na-dārī mēwa-ē mānand-i bēd
