\data\semham\afaset
Proto-Afro-Asiatic: *ṭaḥin- (?)
Meaning: molar tooth
Semitic: *ṭāḥin- 'molar'
Western Chadic: *ṭiḥin- 'tooth'
Notes: Scarce data. Connected with *ṭḥn- 'to grind' (Kogan Add. to HSED 2456) ? Cf. a similar motivation of IE *g'ombhos 'tooth' < *g'em- 'grind'). However, the WCh. parallels cannot be ignored.
