▪ DRS 6 (1996)#WṬN–1 Ar waṭana ‘séjourner, habiter’, ʔawṭana ‘se domicilier, s’établir’, waṭan ‘contrée, territoire, patrie’, mawṭin ‘demeure, pays, théâtre d’un combat’, mīṭān ‘but, fin’, MġrAr waṭṭan ‘appliquer, habituer son esprit à qc’, Sab mwṭn ‘champ (?), champ de bataille, temple’, Jib ōṭən ‘commencer à vivre dans un nouveau lieu’. [–2 –4: not attested in Ar].
▪ Orel&Stolbova1994 #2562 connect (WCh) Tala ten ‘to sit’ to the Ar wṭn i ‘to dwell, stay’. 
▪ Out of the four values attested in Sem (accord. to DRS), only one is represented in Ar.
▪ BAH2008 give the variety of meanings in ClassAr as ‘habitat; a battlefield, a place where s.th. is done; to settle in, to reconcile o.s. to s.th.’
▪ From the Ar forms, Orel&Stolbova1994 #2562 reconstruct Sem *w˅ṭin‑ (in StarLing modified to Sem *w/y˅ṭin‑) ‘to dwell, stay’, from the WCh verb ten the WCh *ṭyan‑ ‘to sit’ (with loss of initial *w˅‑, which may be a prefix). For both items, the authors assume an origin in AfrAs *w˅ṭen‑ (in StarLing modified to AfrAs *y˅ṭin‑) ‘to dwell, stay’
