Re: [westasianconlangs] Carpets



Though there doesn't appear to be a noun accompanying the verb,
the first definition in my dictionary (by J.M. Cowan!  I didn't John did
an Arabic dictionary...) under "xamara" is "to cover, hide, conceal".
Though most of the related words have to do with fermentation and
wine, "concealing" sure sounds like what you do with a rug.
