"لصف" meaning in All languages combined

See لصف on Wiktionary

Noun [Arabic]

IPA: /la.sˤaf/
Etymology: A metathesized borrowing from Aramaic, since, while in Hebrew, in which the standard term for the caper is צָלָף (ṣālā́p̄), the root is unused, the Aramaic root צ־ל־ף / ܨ-ܠ-ܦ (ṣ-l-p) forms meanings related to splittings and cracks, which refers to the bursting ripening caperberry; though the pertinent noun meaning a caper is only scarcely attested in Aramaic as נִצְפָא (niṣp̄ā) and ܢܹܝܨܦܵܐ (nēṣp̄ā) – a distortion of the consonants least common for this etymon in Arabic – because this native Aramaic term had been ousted by the كَبَر (kabar) type word for the caper. The Arabic شَفَلَّح (šafallaḥ, “capper”) can also plausibly be derived from a root for splittings and cracks.
