ܥܢܒܬܐ
Classical Syriac
Etymology
Akin to Hebrew עֵנָב (ʿēnāḇ, “grape”), Hebrew עֲנָבָה (ʿănāḇā), Lua error in Module:parameters at line 360: Parameter 1 should be a valid language, etymology language or family code; the value "sem-jar" is not valid. See WT:LOL, WT:LOL/E and WT:LOF., עִנְּבָא (ʿinneḇā, “cluster of grapes”), עִנְבְּתָא (ʿinbəṯā, “berry”), Ugaritic 𐎙𐎐𐎁 (ġnb, “grape(s)”), Arabic عِنَب (ʕinab), Sabaean 𐩲𐩬𐩨 (ʿnb, “vineyard”), and probably Akkadian 𒄧 (GURUN /enbu/, “fruit”) with its many derivatives.
