No. English Zanahi Proto-Zanahic Etymology of Zanahi form (if not directly from the Proto-Zanahic)
1 I ’ammā *ʔéṣ *ʔán- "that (over there)" + lengthened variant of *mé "me" (perhaps the ablative *méṭ).
2 you (singular) ’antā (m.); ’antī (f.) *túʔ Masculine form from *ʔán- "that (over there)" + lengthened variant of *twé "thee" (perhaps the ablative *twéṭ). The feminine was then formed by analogy with the third person pronoun (supported by the Semitic counterparts).
3 he hattā (m.); hattī (f.) *hóh; *tóh From a combined pronoun *hohtóh in which both parts would have originally been declined.
4 we ’annā *wéyeh *ʔán- "that (over there)" + *nōh "us (clitic)" or *noʔ "us two (clitic)".
5 you (plural) ’antān (m.); ’antīn (f.) *yū́h From the singular by analogy.
6 they hattān (m.); hattīn (f.) *hóy, *híʔah, *háʔ; *tóy, *tíʔah, *táʔ See the third person singular.
7 this sā (m.); sī (f.) *sóh, *síʔ, *sóṭ
8 that tā (m.); tī (f.) *tóh, *tíʔ, *tóṭ; *hóh, *híʔ, *hóṭ; *ʔánoh, *ʔániʔ, *ʔánoṭ *tóh
9 here sam *séhmi
10 there tam *téhmi; *héhmi
11 who *kóh, *kíʔ From the feminine (since the masculine would give an identical form to the neuter).
12 what *kóh, *kíʔ, *kóṭ From the neuter.
13 where kam *kéhmi
14 when kaṭā *kóṭe Zanahi: From an extended form, perhaps with an instrumental suffix (*-ʔ) or ablative suffix (*-ṭ).
15 how kayf *kéy Zanahi: From *kéypo, a compound of *kéy "how, by what" + postpositional *po "from, due to"
16 not lā; mā *nē̆, *meʔ : a modification of earlier *nā due to Semitic influence.
