  • The word had the same syntactic constraints asħu(brother), which compare.
  • As in Arabic, the word was often used figuratively to associate a person with some object or activity. Therefore, in the remaining compoundsbu typically means “the one with...”, “the one that is...”, “the one who always...”, rather than literally “father”.
