[QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] Please provide an example that justifies taking the last letter of [i]nHs -- 's'[/i] -- along with what is only a suffix denoting plurality -- [i]'w'[/i] -- to arrive abruptly at a word -- [i]'su'[/i] -- that isn't a plural. We don't know the precise literal translation for [i]nHs[/i] because it's an unused root in Egyptic with no other word in the vocabulary associated with it other than the NK usage -- sting. [i]rsu[/i] is not [i]nHs.w[/i] Medjay lived southeast of AE's southern border. Tjemehu lived southeast of AE's southern border. Yet, Medjay were classed [i]nHs.w[/i] but Tjemehu weren't. [i]pWN.t[/i] was south of Egypt and was part of [i]t3.NH(+H)s.y{X3ST}[/i] and Punt most certainly isn't Sudan. As for the delta marshland, Upper Egypt was south of it but I nowhere find residents of [i]t3.shm`w[/i] ever labeled [i]nHs.w[/i] Perhaps you can show us an instance that fits your Tupelo and Mexico analogies? The AEs knew of no entity Sudan. So what is your position now? Sudan or worthless or negro or??? We all very well understand the [i]nHs.w[/i] were south of Egypt. That's why in the past I translated it southerner basing myself on BG 4:5 vg30 where the order of non-Egyptians follows the sun's path. It was a useful translation for meaning but it's not literally what [i]nHs[/i] means. I'm beginning to think [i]nHs[/i] is a root from a non-AEL. [QUOTE]Originally posted by Wally: [qb] The [b]literal[/b] translation of Nahasu is Sudanese, and the way in which at some occasions it is written to include the ideogram "Su" indicates that the Sudanese were peoples who lived in the south. Nahasu literally does not mean south or southerner! [b]south, southerner[/b] These are relative terms; if you lived in Chicago, then even someone living in Gary, Indiana a few miles away is south of you and therefore a southerner to you - the same would be true of someone living in Tupelo, Mississippi - or in Mexico City, Mexico and you understand that Mexico is not politically a part of the USA. By the same token; if you lived in the Egyptian marshlands of the north, those who lived in middle or Upper Egypt were to the south of you, and therefore southerners (resu). . . . . [b]The literal translation of "Nahasu", in English, is "Sudanese" - a conglomeration of peoples who were non-Egyptian nationals; foreign Blacks who lived to the south of Kême's borders.[/b] ...Understand???
