|probably Tamil, cognates in South Dravidian languages{{refn|group=nb| The modern Hebrew word for weavers loom {{Transliteration|he|nul}} is generally accepted to be derived from the Aramaic {{Transliteration|arc|nawlā}} per Ernest Klein, which is related to Arabic {{lang|ar|نَوْل}}, but Podolsky believes its highly improbable that the original word is preserved only in one language without cognates in other Semitic languages apart from those that were borrowed from it. He believes its related to the acquisition of a new weaving technology from South India.}} |
