Words maintaining an original /aː/

Words which did not undergo the Canaanite vowel shift may be of native Canaanite extraction or loanwords (especially from Aramaic).

Usage notes

The /i/ or /u/ of the first syllable becomes an extra-short /ă/, that is חֲ. Cf. חֲמוֹר (<ḥimār) and חֲלוֹם (<ḥilām).
