ZYT زيت 
ID … • Sw – • BP – • APD … • © SG | 15Feb2021
√ZYT 
“root” 
▪ ZYT_1 ‘(olive) oil, olive (tree), to anoint’ ↗zayt, ↗zaytūn
▪ ZYT_2 ‘…’ ↗…

♦ Semantic value spectrum in ClassAr (acc. to BAH2008): ‘oil, particularly olive oil, to anoint; olives, olive tree’ 
▪ From among the 3 values of ZYT listed in DRS, only the first is represented in Ar.
▪ While earlier research assumed that the meaning ‘(olive) oil’ was an Ar innovation—the primary value in Sem being ‘olives, olive tree’, more recent studies would not exclude that also ‘oil’ was an original value.
▪ However that may have been, Ar distinguishes between ‘oil’ (↗zayt) and ‘olive (tree)’ (↗zaytūn). 
– 
▪ DRS 8 (1999)#ZYT-1 Ug zt ‘olive’, Hbr zayit, EmpAram zyt, TargAram Syr Mand nAram zayatā ‘olive, olivier’, Ar zayt ‘huile’, zaytūn, Mhr zaytūn Jib zetun ‘olive, olivier’, Soq zeyt ‘huile d’olive’, Gz zayt, Te zet, Tña zäyti, Amh Gur Har zäyt ‘olive, olivier; huile d’olive’. -2 SAr ziyyit ‘craquer (chaussure)’. -3 Gur zīt, zit, zitänä ‘malade possédé par un esprit’. 
▪See section CONC above.
▪ ZYT_1: It is probably not wrong to assume a (W)Sem *zayt- ‘olives, olive tree; (?) olive oil’
