"ferra'" meaning in Maltese

See ferra' in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Verb

IPA: /ˈfɛr.ra/, /ˈfɛr.raˤ/
Rhymes: -ɛrra, (archaic) -ɛrraˤ Etymology: Regularly the verb “to pour” (Arabic فَرَّغَ (farraḡa)) should be ferragħ, while the verb “to branch out” (Arabic فَرَّعَ (farraʕa)) should be ferra'. However, due to confluence in several conjugated forms, both have been merged and are now variants.
