The word 'به' (be) comes from Middle Persian 'pad' and Old Persian 'patiy', meaning 'to, toward, according to'. The word 'جز' (joz) comes from Middle Persian 'čuz', meaning 'apart from, except'. Thus, 'به جز' literally means 'to apart from' or 'except for'. It has been used in Persian literature for centuries to denote exclusion.
