*blṭ - to live, to escape
(Kogan 2015: 85)
The root plṭ, attested with the meaning “to escape” in Ugaritic, Hebrew and Aramaic, must be related in spite of the phonological irregularity. More
problematic is Arb. flt ‘to escape’, usually compared as well (Fronzaroli 1965b:250,
263, 267 and elsewhere)
