Syriac

peˀḳā - mute, dumb (LSyr. 588, SL 1151)

The lexeme is thought to be borrowed from Akk. pīḳu by Brockelmann, Zimmern (1917, 49), Sokoloff (SL 1151), and Kaufman 1974, 83, but no comparable meanings are attested for the Akkadian adjective (even if it can be “said especially of the mouth”, Kaufman 1974, 83).
