Nir,

It's just the opposite! As was noted in the exchange
on this before, the origin of this word was the Sumerian
expression ' big house'. Then it underwent internal
devolpment in Sumerian, as presented in the exchange here.
You can find it in the archive.

Can we then agree with the paraphrase of the famous
verse:

Rabbot Mahshavot B'lev Ish Wa'atsat Hammillon
(the dictionary) Hi) Taqum? Prov 19:21


Uri Hurwitz Great Neck

hykl

the particular transformation this word suffered in sumer may be
easily explained by non-semitic pressures.
