Write (ʔ-r-β)[edit]

Note[edit]

Given this meaning, either it's due to a subsequent semantic shift (as often, it's "to scratch" > "to write"), or it's a borrowing, thus likely from Punic or Latin.

Clothes (l-s-ʔ(/β))[edit]

To wear[edit]

Etymology[edit]

From Proto-Afroasiatic *(l-)b-s, with metathesis. Cognate with Arabic مَلْبَس (malbas) from ل ب س (l-b-s) and Egyptian ḥbs. This suggests a reconstruction as *lsβ, see my note below.

Verb[edit]

*lsʔ (aorist *ắlsəʔ)

  1. to dress, clothe, wear
  2. to get dressed

Reconstruction notes[edit]

I'd rather reconstruct *lsβ, on the one hand based on the etymology and the clear correspondence of PB *β with *b in PSem & Egyptian, on the other hand bc it makes sense, as *β often disappears, like *ʔ, and the rests of it in the descendants point to *ʔ, e.g. the /w/ in Central Atlas Tamazight ⵎⵍⵙⵉⵡⵜ (mlsiwt).

Conjugation[edit]

This verb is irregular.

  • aorist, 1st, singular: ắlsəʔ-əɣ
  • aorist, 3rd, singular, masculine: y-ắlsəʔ
  • aorist, 3rd, plural, masculine: ắlsəʔ-ăn
  • perfect, 1st, singular: əlsắʔ-əɣ
  • perfect, 3rd, singular, masculine: y-əlsắʔ

  • imperfect, 3rd, singular, masculine: y-əlắssăʔ
  • imperfect, 3rd, plural, masculine: əlắ(/ă?)ssăʔ-ăn

Descendants[edit]

In this order, except for CAT :

  1. aorist, 1st, singular
  2. aorist, 3rd singular masculine
  3. aorist, 3rd, plural, masculine:
  4. perfect, 1st, singular
