Every lexeme is documented in available sources and etymologized in areal or genealogical perspectives. In the case of borrowings, the ambition is to trace primary donor-languages, usually Arabic or Ethio-Semitic, sometimes Nilo-Saharan. The inherited lexemes are identified, if no convincing donors were determined, while there are promising comparanda in other Cushitic, Omotic or other Afroasiatic branches.}, title={An Excerpt from the ‘Comparative and Etymological Dictionary of Beja: Fauna in Beja Lexicon’}, type={Article}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/134424/2024-FORI-11.pdf}, doi={10.24425/for.2024.152394}, keywords={Beja, Cushitic, Afroasiatic, Nilo-Saharan, zoological terminology, etymology}, }
