Was There a Color Term *ḥmr ‘to be red’ in Proto-Semitic?
Babel und Bibel. 2016. Vol. 9. P. 3-17.
The article considers the evidence for the existence of a Proto-Semitic root *ḥmr ‘to be red’ and argues that the reconstruction of this root, albeit generally accepted by modern Semiticists, is by no means convincing. A close inspection reveals that this reconstruction solely relies on the Arabic basic colour term for ‘red’, ʔaḥmar-. Almost all potential cognates of the Arabic term can be safely discarded: the meaning of some of them is obscure, others are apparently derivatives from *ḫamr- ‘wine’, others are Arabic borrowings. Special attention is given to the terms which can be plausibly reinterpreted as reflexes of Proto-Semitic *ḥmr ‘to be inflamed (said of internal and external organs)’.

The title Babel und Bibel is ...

Когда «Князь Серебряный» увидел свет (1862), тогдашние ревнители общественного блага сочли «повесть времен Иоанна Грозного» литературно архаичной, этически ничтожной и политически вредной. Честному писателю надлежит клеймить сегодняшние безобразия, а не баснословного царя. Стыдно отвлекать общество от важных дел сказками о княжеских страданиях, порушенной любви, верности слову, муках совести и прочей ерунде. Граф А. К. Толстой ...
