ˀŏniyyā - ship (HALOT 71)

PC
*ˀVny(-at)- - ship (HALOT 70, CDG 410, Fronzaroli 1966‒1967: 212, 1972: 627, Kogan 2015: 282)

meaning shift “vessel” > “ship,” abundantly documented elsewhere in the world’s languages, could be considered exclusively Canaanite, but cf. Arb. mīnāˀ- ‘port’, plausibly derivable from *mi-ˀnāw- (v. Maizel 1983:231). For numerous Indo-European precedents v. Buck 1949:727. In Semitic, cf. Hbr. kəlī ‘vessel; ship, boat’
