 * Only found in Central Semitic, so a PWS entry is not justified. Al-Jallad thinks the verb "be white", which does seemingly have Ethiosemitic cognates (which mean "be yellow"), is actually secondary to the meaning "egg", but I can't find him having defended this position in the literature. I will delete the entry (and as a place to list cognates, it wasn't exactly doing much work anyway). —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 20:12, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
