conc▪ A closer relation exists between Ar kalm ‘wound’ and the Can (Hbr, Aram) idea of ‘humiliation, to insult, offend, put to shame’. DRS links these also to the ESem notion of ‘to show, indicate, point out’ as represented in Akk kullumu. For the question whether any, or all, of these may be akin to the other main value attached to KLM in Ar, namely ‘to speak, talk; word, speech, language’ (↗kalimaẗ, ↗ kalām), cf. section DISC below as well as ↗KLM.
