The definition “birth” is Inherited from Aramaic יַלְדָּא (yalədā), Proto-Semitic *walad-; compare Arabic وَلَد (walad), Hebrew יֶלֶד (yéled) and Persian یلدا (yaldâ). The form ܝܲܠܕܵܐ (yaldā) of the first two definitions is a semantic matching with Classical Syriac, and may be considered a separate word as a learned borrowing from Classical Syriac. This word in the first two meanings displaced the form ܐܝܵܠܵܐ (īyālā) written in early 17-18th century texts, and is almost certainly borrowed from Arabic عِيَال (ʕiyāl, “children”). This as such accounts for an initial /ʔ/ still maintained in some dialects, and has largely displaced the native ܝܲܠܘܼܕ݂ܵܐ (yalūḏā).
