From Classical Phrygian {{vry-times||ɭɑp̃}} ('' | From Classical Phrygian {{vry-times||ɭɑp̃}} (''ṣ̌arr''), backformed from its feminine counterpart {{vry-times||ɭɑp̃ɑq}} (''ṣjarratʰ''), from {{vry-from-pr|Semitic|language|ṣ́arrat-}}. Cognate with {{vry-from-n|Hebrew|language|צָרָה|צרה}} (''tsará''), {{vry-from-n|Phoenician|language|𐤑𐤓𐤕|𐤑𐤓𐤕}} (''ṣrt''), {{vry-from-n|Arabic||ضَرَّة|ضرة}} (''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. | ||
