Hebrew GHORÉ < Proto-Semitic *GHARÀ * --- *GOR- Greek
This Hebrew root has come to indicate above all various forms of mental fire, as referred to here. That places it near the Greek use of this root..
Note:
- Greek probably has repeated the " G ", together with the following " O ", leaving us an original form " GOR " as we have indicated.
Note:
- Hebrew for "ardour" also has the nouns "
ח
ר
ו
ן, gharon " and
" ח
ר
י
, gharì ".
Note:
- Proto-Semitic. This root is also found in Aramaic and Syriac "ח ר ה , gharà" and "ח ר י נ א , gheryan'à = contention, strife". There is a cognate in Arabic "gharwah = burning sensation in throat, (specifically) from rage". It probably was already used in Proto-Semitic. "*ח ר ה , GH R H (accentuated vowel)".
