Hebrew

šiˁūl - cough (BY 7348)

Attested only in Late Rabbinic Hebrew and considered by Ben Yehuda loans from Syriac [BY 7348]. This can hardly be proved; it is of interest, however, that no verb with a clear meaning ‘to cough’ is known in the whole corpus of Biblical and early post-Biblical texts.
