Ancient Greek κυπάρισσος ~ Hebrew גֹּפֶר‎ (gōp̄er) ~ Caucasian
Hi. What do you think of comparing Proto-North Caucasian *ɢHabrišwi and Ancient Greek κυπάρισσος? See page 70: 26. Gnosandes (talk) 18:58, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Hey. I find the comparison between cypress-cones and gooseberries eagle-eyed. As regards similar use, cypress-cones are not edible unlike pine-cones and spruce-cones but juniper berries (the mature female cones of juniper) are again and are well known to actually have been used; although in turn savin berries are deadly. All would taste pungent. The Greek is deemed pre-Greek because of the shape and the Hebrew pre-Hebrew – – surely because of the plant’s distribution, together with Iranian borrowings, , and , and  and other borrowed or problematic words in the whole botanic family, so it’s worth a mention – reference template is  –; and additionally the similarity of that assumed Proto-North Caucasian form to 🇨🇬 (reconstruction by Morgenstierne) is striking! Maybe we should also draw  to the same family, maybe . There may be a distortion of the ever same word since the beginning of writing. Gnosandes is on something here, .

 * I don't know the sound correspondence laws between these languages to judge. --Vahag (talk) 06:00, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * This is quite interesting. I am confused by the Greek comparison because of the Attic form. But it's still close. I think it is possible to add the 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 to the 🇨🇬. Juniper berry and gooseberry are quite similar... Although it is not difficult for me to admit that I have never engaged Iranian languages. And without such knowledge, it will be difficult for me to find any similar cognates. Thank you so much. Gnosandes (talk) 07:59, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
