Etymology: Borrowed ＜ Aram.Aramaic For the Aram. etymon, cf., e.g., Sokoloff 2009, 120, who distinguishes two roots bdq, one mng. “to disperse” (corresponding to Akk. batāqu), the other mng. “to repair”; other scholars assume only a single root bdq. The form bdq instead of btq and the mng. “to repair”, only attested in NA and LB (cf. badqu), suggest a loan from Aram. See Cherry 2023, 78f.
