• W2556421306 abstract "The book under review is the second volume of a comprehensive etymological dictionary of Egyptian. The project was initiated in 1999 by Gabor Takacs, one of the leading figures in the present-day comparative lexicography of Afroasiatic (Hamito-Semitic). As well known to the users of EDE I, the second volume of this dictionary is actually the first one: the whole book of 1999 was an extensive introduction to the etymological method applied to Egyptian and Afroasiatic. It is only now that a systematic list of Egyptian words with their possible Afroasiatic parallels starts to be published. The volume under review deals with three labial phonemes of Egyptian and includes a larger section containing words beginning with b(pp. 1-372) and smaller sections with words beginning with p(pp. 373-548) and f(pp. 549-616). The etymological part is preceded by a short introduction and closed by a list of “additional literature” which includes only the titles which were not quoted in the introductory volume. These twenty pages represent an impressive continuation of the basic bibliography compiled for EDE I (more than seventy pages) but it is a pity that an integral bibliographic list was not compiled for the present volume. This actually means that EDE I has to be available whenever any further volume of the dictionary is consulted which is, according to my own experience, rather unpractical on many occasions. As a student of comparative Semitics, I do not feel able to pronounce a competent judgement about the level of Egyptological and Afroasiatic discussion as reflected in EDE II. I have good reasons to suppose, however, that they must broadly correspond to the author’s understanding of Semitological problems which play an important (though by far not a crucial) role in his etymological treatment of Egyptian words. In this respect, I can only congratulate Takacs for an outstanding work. Moreover, in my opinion the quality of the diachronic analysis of Semitic words in EDE II by far surpasses the standard adopted by the traditional Semitological scholarship. Semitic cognates to the Egyptian lexicon are adduced with an unusual degree of completeness and precision. All significant phonological and semantic deviations are commented upon in an appropriate way. Most Semitic words are provided with one or more lexicographic reference(s) which usually allow to easily locate the necessary term in the respective sources. One has to admit that for some Semitic languages a more comprehensive use of lexicographic tools would be desirable. Thus, Ugaritic words are often quoted after Aistleitners’ vocabulary, a pioneering work for its time but almost completely obsolete today and successfully replaced by DLU (one of whose" @default.
