From Latin Transoxiana, from trans (“beyond”) + Oxus (“Amu Darya”), literally “lands beyond Oxus”, ultimately after Arabic مَا وَراءَ النَّهْر (mā warāʔa n-nahr, literally “what is beyond the river”).
Transoxiana
Compound of trāns- + Ōxus + -iānus, thus meaning "the region beyond the Oxus (now Syrdarya) river".
