Reconstructions

Areal reconstruction
*gišm- - body, trunk (SED I No. 96; Kogan 2011: 214)
Areal reconstruction
*gʷafl-/*gVfn- - stuffed skin given in place of her young one to a bereaved mother-animal (EDG 266, DRS 170, Kogan 2015: 554)

MSA + Southern EthS. The ultimate origin of this peculiar areal isogloss is obscure. Any connection with Arb. ǯafn- ‘scabbard, sheath’? (Kogan 2015: 554)

Areal reconstruction
*kawdan- - mule (SED II No. 124; Kogan 2011: 207)
Areal reconstruction
*ḳanṭīr- - clitoris (SED I No. 163)

Attested only in the S. Sem. area; possibly an areal term not of common Sem. origin.

Areal reconstruction
*mḫṣ̂ - to have labour pains (SED I No. 40v)

Though likely derived from PS *mḫṣ̂ 'to smite' (see in HALOT 571, CDG 338), a parallelism in Arb. and Eth. is hardly a fortuitous result of independent semantic development.

Areal reconstruction
*nāḳ-at- - camel (SED II No. 161, Kogan 2011: 207)

one of the four widespread designations of camel in individual languages, the similarity between these designations must be due to diffusion from an Arabian source

Areal reconstruction
*npṭ - to blow the nose (SED I No. 48v)

Only in SSem area.

Areal reconstruction
*pagr- - body, trunk (SED I No. 209; Kogan 2011: 214)
Areal reconstruction
*pVrd- - mule (SED II No. 177; Kogan 2011: 206)
Areal reconstruction
*parzil- - iron (Kogan 2015: 287)
