▪ DRS 10 (2012)#ḪRDL–1: JP ḥardᵉlā, Ar ḫardal, Soq ḥardal ‘moutarde, senevé’. –2 Ar ḫardala ‘couper en gros morceaux’. –3 AndAr ḫardal ‘cueillir des raisins dans une grappe’; être petis ou rare (raisins). –4 MġrAr ḫardəl ‘parler à tort et à travers’

disc

▪ The Ar values given in DRS apart from ‘mustard, mustard seeds’ are obsolete in MSA.
▪ Any relation between ḪRDL_1 ‘mustard (seeds)’ and ḪRDL_2 ^†ḫardala ‘to cut into big pieces’ ? The latter may belong to a group of roots that seem to be derived from, or extensions of, a bi-consonantal basis ↗*ḪR- ‘to split, mince, chop, throw into disorder, confuse, spoil’, to which also belong ↗ḪRBṬ, ↗ḪRBQ, ↗ḪRṬ, ↗ḪRQ, ↗ḪRM.
