      Sorry, you think Arabs made a village and called it “Hebron”, the Hebrew word for “alliance”? And that the Cave of the Patriarchs is there because…?

        You know Hebrew and Arabic are both descended from an older, common semitic language from the same region? It’s a shared culture you twat of course they have similar words.

          Arabic isn’t from the region. “Hebron” isn’t what it’s called in Arabic - were you aware of that before you acted like an ass?

            Looking at your comment history, you seem to lack both self awareness and reading comprehension. I said it was descended from a common language and culture, I made no claim on where the word or language actually originate. You come off as a contrarian troll only commenting for the sake of arguing, I think you are projecting a bit in calling me an ass.

              It’s not descended from a common culture. That’s something you just made up.

              How are you this ignorant and saying I lack self-awareness? Holy shit

                “The Semitic languages are a branch of the Afroasiatic language family. They include Arabic, […] Hebrew, […]” - The literal Wikipedia page on Semitic languages

                This is stuff you can search in 3 seconds, but you continue to argue, fruitlessly. Why? What motivates you to spend your time on this? The point is lost.
