The Etymology of Sabaic brṯ‘place’
This article proposes an etymology for the common Sabaic word brṯ ‘place’, namely, via derivation from the nominalised prepositional phrase b‘in’ + ʾṯ r ‘place’, with two phonological shifts at play: (a) elision of the intervocalic glottal stop, and (b) metathesis of /ṯ / and /r/.
