لبن²
- /libn/
- /la.bin/
Where it comes from
As Hebrew לְבֵנָה (ləḇenā́, “brick”) borrowed from Aramaic לְבִינְּתָּא (ləḇinṯā, ləḇittā) (written in Classical Syriac ܠܒܬܐ (ləḇettā)), from Akkadian 𒋞 (SIG₄ /libittu/), whence also Ugaritic 𐎍𐎁𐎐𐎚 (lbnt), from the root in Akkadian corresponding to ل ب ن (l b n), apparently the singulative in Arabic came first.
