Phrygian

Etymology

From Classical Phrygian ɭɑp̃ (ṣjarr), backformed from its feminine counterpart ɭɑp̃ɑq (ṣjarratʰ), from Proto-Semitic *ṣ́arrat-. Cognate with Hebrew צָרָה (tsará), Phoenician 𐤑𐤓𐤕 (ṣrt), Arabic ضَرَّة (ḍarra), among others. The semantic shift from "co-wife" to "friend", likely going through "someone of lower rank", "outsider", then "close outsider", is wholly unique to Phrygian.
