√FRʕN
▪ FRʕN_1 ‘pharaoh’ ↗firʕawn♦ Semantic value spectrum in ClassAr (acc. to BAH2008): ‘Pharaoh; to act tyrannically, to oppress; sagacity, intelligence, cunning; crocodile’. – Some philologists derive firʕawn from this root, but the majority recognise it as a borrowing from the language of the Copts, with other meanings, presumably, derived from it.
