√KRY 
vb., I 
to sleep, be asleep, slumber – WehrCowan1976 
▪ Within the spectrum of semantic values attached to the root ↗KRY, the value ‘to sleep, be asleep, slumber’ seems to be rather isolated, as it can hardly be connected to ‘renting, leasing, letting’ (↗kirāʔ) or ‘digging’ (↗karā\à), nor to now obsolete notions like ‘to have thin and parted legs’ (↗†KRY_5), ‘to run swiftly’ (↗†KRY_6), and others. A certain overlapping may, perhaps, be observed in the case of †ʔakrà ‘to keep sacred vigils | passer des nuits dans l’insomnie et en actes de devotion’ (↗†KRY_9), though this latter may rather be based on ‘to prolong, delay, postpone’ (↗†KRY_8) rather than on ‘sleep, slumber’.
▪ According to DRS (#KRY-3), Ar ¹kariya ‘to sleep, be asleep, slumber’ is without obvious cognates in Sem.
