إناء

Arabic

أَوَانٍ

Etymology

From Proto-Semitic. Compare Hebrew אֳנִיָּה (ʾŏnīyá, “ship”), Aramaic מָאנָא (mānā, “vessel, container”), Ugaritic 𐎀𐎐𐎊𐎚 (ảnyt, “ship”), Akkadian 𒃻𒄘𒈾 (/⁠unūtu, anūtu⁠/, “household, palace; ship; utensils, instruments, tools, wares, gear”), Ge'ez ንዋይ (nəway, “vessel, utensil, instrument; goods, possessions, property, wealth, estate”). It is generally assumed that there has been an accumulation of dissimilations in all these forms.
