نجل
Arabic
Etymology
From the root ن ج ل (n-j-l). Connectable to Hebrew נָגַר (nagar, “to flow out”), Aramaic נְגַר (nəgar, “to flow out”), Classical Syriac ܢܓܰܪ (nəgar, “to last”), Ge'ez ነገድ (nägäd, “kin; progeny”), Hebrew נֶכֶד (neḵeḏ, “progeny”), Ge'ez ነገደ (nägädä, “to travel”), Aramaic נְגַד / ܢܓܰܕ (nəgad, “to flow; to draw, to pull; to stretch out”), Ge'ez ሞገድ (mogäd, “wave”), Ge'ez ነገለ (nägälä, “to be uprooted; to roll up”), Classical Syriac ܢܓܰܠ (nəgal, “to clear away”). From here developing ideas of begetting, offspring creeping out of plants and animals, so also in Tigre ነገል (näggäl, “young goat, kid”).
