Reconstruction:Proto-Semitic/waral-

Etymology
Very likely a borrowing, in consideration of the consonant pairing, which is, barring perhaps a breakdown of a quadriconsonantal or any such arbitrary occurrence, impossible, whether it be r and l or r and n, as there is a strict rule that the second and third consonant of a triconsonantal Semitic root can only be identical but not otherwise homorganic; whereas a  origin is thinkable, compare  and.
