Etimologie (Engels)

Not attested in Aramaic, but Hebrew אַגָּס (ʾaggā́s, “pear”) and Akkadian 𒄑𒀭𒂵𒋗 (angašu, “pear or plum tree”); as a bridge, an unattested local form of Aramaic may have lent the Arabic emphaticized variant. Compare تُفَّاح (tuffāḥ, “apple”), a lexical entry also missing in documented Aramaic but not in Hebrew.
