Nabad etymology

[Midas]

I have come to the realisation [many] words found in Somali, which are also found in Arabic are nether loan words nor borrowed, but share the same linguistic root.

How Afroasiatic lanaguges are connected is honestly incredibly mysterious. You have lots of linguists who say berber and semetid branches are closer. But we have no idea how that would even physically be possible. Theres also no real explanation for where eygptian came from.

the verb ( to play ) in the ancient Egyptian verb ḥꜥb
( حعب ) is related to Proto-Semitic *lʕb.
Compare Arabic لعب (lʕb) .

L ↔ ḥ ( ح ) ,
ḥꜥb ( ḥaʕib حعب ) ↔ لعب ( laʕiba ) .

ḥꜥb ( ḥaʕib حعب ) / لعب ( laʕiba ) is related to Somali verb ciyaar ( ʕiyaar ) which means play .

Somali verb : la ciyaar ( la ʕiyaar ) means to play or cause to to play / play with .

L ↔ ḥ ( ح ) , b ↔ r ,
la ciyaar : la ʕ-y-r ↔ la ʕ-y-b ↔ ḥ ʕ-y-b ,
la ciyaar ( ʕiyaar لَعِيار) ↔ لَعِيب (laʕiib ) / ḥꜥb(ḥaʕiib حَعِيب )

لَ عِيار ↔ لَ عِيب / حَ عِي
​

Somali : n-b - d (nabad)
Egyptian : s - n-b (sanab)
Semitic : s - l-m (salam) ,
Tigrinya : d - ḥ-n (daḥan) ደሓን ኩን.
Amharic : b - h-n (behin) በህና ሁን.
d ↔ s , ḥ ( ح ) ↔ l , b ↔ n / m ,
∴ s-n-b ( 𓋴𓈖𓃀 ) ↔ s-l-m ↔ d-ḥ-n ,
s-n-b ( 𓋴𓈖𓃀 ) ↔ n-b-d (nabad)

Your stuff is intresting but its impossible to know if the sound changes your proposing are accurate. They definitely sound plausible but unless you post refrences or something its impossible to even evaluate your claims. Since nobody on this forum seems to have that level of linguistics knowledge

Do you have any objection to the fact that there is a common linguistic link between these consonant sequences of the ancient Egyptian verb ḥꜥb ( ḥ-ꜥ-b / ح-عِ-ب ) , Arabic verb لعب ( l-ʕ-b / ل-عِ-ب ) and the Somali verb la ciyaar ( l-ʕ-y-r : la ʕiyaar )?

Do you have an objection to the phoneme ḥ ( ح ) interchangeable with the phoneme L and the phoneme D and others?
L / d ↔ ḥ ( ح ) .

qalax ( qalaḥ ) :
1. qalax ah : dhul dhagax badan oo oomane ah.
translation : a rocky , a dry, barren land .

qarax ( qaraḥ ) :
qarax ah: dhul oomane ah oo aan biyo lahayn.
translation : A dry land without water.

qallal (-alay, -ashay) : Wax qoyanaa engegid.
qallal : dry , get dry , dryness.

L / d ↔ ḥ ( ح ) ,
qalax ( qalaḥ ) = qarax ( qaraḥ ) = qallal .


Egyptian ḥbs : to clothe (a person or body part) ( with (a garment))
, to be(come) clothed (with (a garment)) .

Hebrew ḥbš חָבַשׁ (ḥabash) : to wear (a hat) .

Arabic lbs لَبِسَ (labisa) : to wear; to put on (clothing) , to clothe oneself, to get dressed .

Somali :
gal : to cover,
gal → gasho (gashaday, gashatay) ,
gasho ( gašo ) ,
gasho ( gašo ) : to put on (one’s clothes) ,to wear .

g → b ,
l → š ( sh ) / s ,
l → ḥ ,
gal → gasho → la +gasho → la +basho → labasa / ḥabash / ḥabas .

Somali la gasho → Arabic labisa / Egyptian ḥabas / Hebrew ḥabash .

Seems like a weird etymology since the word for news/report in somali is war. Which we can tell must be very archaic since its used in the clan name warsangeli

I often wondered if the word war and روى might be related somehow. يروي, wariyey .. idk

Maybe there is a common afroasiatic root they share. However there must be more example of similar aa languages with similar word because the word is too phonetically simple to be significant proof

Is the word for peace in somali loaned ? I summed it was arabic but I cant find it in af-arabic

Nigga are your a retard ? how are you gone ask a question about the definition of a word without full understanding it, while still passing on a Somali word to Arab language and yet state by the way I don't read nor comprehend the Arab language. These tards should not be allowed to post on here
