primer_note

⭐ A cross-reference that crosses a SENSE, not just a root: 'stone' is pointed at ܬܪܓܡ, the root of ܬܰܪܓܶܡ 'interpret' and of the word Targum. Nestle says nothing about the link. The pointer is the fifth kind seen in the shard — a bare 'v.' attached to a stem label rather than to a head-word.

uncertain yes

uncertain_note

The word after 'v.' is five glyphs and is read ܬܪܓܡ; ܐܶܬܪܓܶܡ, the Ethpe. of this entry's own root, is the same skeleton plus an initial alaph and would make the line a plain passive rather than a cross-reference. The crop does not settle which.
