primer_note

⭐ The longest head-word in the shard, eleven letters, and glossed in LATIN ALONE — not for a particle this time but for a VERB, and a whole clause of Latin at that. It is a Syriac verb built on a Greek noun, cited from Bar Hebraeus's grammar ('BH. Gr. 1, 48'): a new citation source, and the first author cited by a work of his own rather than by a lexicon column.

uncertain yes

uncertain_note

Consonants certain at 3×; the vowel points on a word this long are not, and the Ethpe./Ettaph. analysis is the extractor's, not Nestle's — he prints the form and the Latin, nothing else.
