няша? наша?[edit]

Don't russians have a word which matches this? I've seen it used on the internet before.Simboyd 17:03, 10 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

From Hebrew נָשִׁי⁩ or a similar form?[edit]

Hebrew נָשִׁי⁩⁩ (nashí) evolved from Proto-Semitic *ʔanθ-at-, so while the -nθ- evolved to -nš- and eventually -šš-, some forms still have the original -n- fossilized. Otherwise, it could've come from a suppletive (if I recall correctly) plural form of אִשָּׁה ('ishá⁩), which would be נָשִׁים⁩ (nashím) or the plural construct forms, ־נְשׁוֹת⁩ (n'shót-) or נְשֵׁי־ (n'she-).   >>>Tamaani Ihaavi (talk) 18:01, 20 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
