√ḤR‑ 
2-cons. "root nucleus" 
Basic meaning *‘to be hot, boiling, to burn’ – DRS 9 (2010). 
According to DRS 9 (2010), Sem *-ḤR- (1) is a 2-consonantal basis with the meaning ‘to be hot, boiling, to boil’, hence also (figurative use) ‘to be angry, furious’. From this basis, several 3-radical roots are formed by extension, see section DERIV below.
