NOTES: Akk. azzatu (ḫazzatu) 'she-goat' [CAD a2 531], [AHw. 339] with -zz- instead of -nz- is of interest (attested in OB texts from Chahar Bazar and in Nuzi where according to [CAD] it is used as "a word for an age category of she-goats"). It is tempting to consider these peripheral terms as WS borrowings but note that in none of the known ancient WS languages forms with the fem. marker -at- are common. On the other hand, cf. Arb. ʕazzat- 'petite gazelle femelle' [BK 2 241], [Fr. III 149], [Lane 2032], [LA V 389]. // Akk. ḫazzu (ARM 2 37:8,10) and ḫanzu 'goat' (Malku V 36, = enzu) are obvious WS loans (v. [CAD ḫ 83], [Streck 96]). ʔ instead of ʕ in MSA is unusual and requires an explanation. // Cha. Eža End. anž Enm. Msq. ãnž End. Gyt. añž Cha. Enm. Gyt. ãž 'heifer, calf' [LGur. 78] probably belong to the present root with a meaning shift (cf. Leslau's remark "Perhaps from Arb. ʕanz 'goat' unless it is common with Arabic ʕanz, Heb. ʕēz"). Note also Wol. anzat 'cattle that conceived' [LGur. 78], End. Enm. Gyt.. azay 'cow before she bears young' [ibid. 122]. // Tgr. ʕasäs, f. ʕasasit 'goats' [LH 464] may be of interest (a variant root with -s instead of -z?). Note also Tna. ʕǝnšu 'specie di gazzella molto piccola' [Bass. 692]. // [Fron. 29]: *ʕanz- 'capra' (ESA, Arb., Syr., Hbr., Ugr., Akk.); [KB 804]: Hbr., Arm., Pho., Arb., Akk., Eth. (with reference to [Leslau Contributions 39]); [DLU 95]: Ugr., Hbr., Pho., Arm., Akk., Arb.; [Brock. 535]: Syr., Arm., Pho., Hbr., Arb., Akk.; [LS 55]: Soq., MSA, Arb., Hbr., Arm., Akk.; [Firmage 1152]: Akk., Hbr., Ugr., Arm., Arb.; [Hommel 246]: *ʕizzu 'Ziege' (Arb., Hbr., Pho., Arm.).
