▪ No obvious relation to other main values of the root ↗ĠLː (ĠLL), like ‘to insert, enter, penetrate’ (↗¹ġalla ), ‘iron collar; manacles, handcuffs; chains, shackles, fetters’ (↗²ġull ), ‘produce, crops; revenue, returns; grain, cereals, corn; fruits’ (↗ġallaẗ ), ‘fine cape, shirtlike garment, gown’ (↗ġilālaẗ ), or ‘water flowing amid trees’ [†ġalal, ↗†ĠLː (ĠLL)_8]

▪ Most ClassAr dictionaries regard ‘burning thirst’ as the basic value of which ↗ġill ‘rancor, hatred, spite, malice’ is fig. use. In the ints. form ġalīl, both values overlapp: it takes the meaning ‘burning thirst’ as well as that of ‘thirst for revenge; rancor, ill will’ (and also ‘ardent desire’ in general). While ¹ġull is without reliable cognates in Sem, ġill has clear parallels in Sab (see COGN s.v. ġill ) and may therefore represent a more original value (unless the Sab forms should be Arabisms).
