Etymology

Palestinien is a noun derived from the adjective *palestinien*, which entered French from Latin *Palæstina*, a term borrowed from Greek *Παλαιστίνη*. The Greek word, in turn, comes from the Phoenician‑Canaanite root *Baalistīn*, meaning “the land of the Philistines” and referring to the ancient coastal region. Over centuries the term shifted from denoting the Philistine homeland to the broader Levantine area, and in contemporary usage it designates an inhabitant of modern Palestine.
