Akin to Arabic عُنَّاب (ʕunnāb, jujube), Hebrew עֵנָב (ʿēnāḇ, grape), Hebrew עֲנָבָה (ʿănāḇā), Aramaic עֲנָבָא (ʿănnāḇā, stalk of grapes), עִנְּבָא (ʿinneḇā, cluster of grapes), עִנְבְּתָא (ʿinbəṯā, berry), Classical Syriac ܥܷܢܒ݂݁ܳܬܐ (ʿinbəṯā, berry), Ugaritic 𐎙𐎐𐎁 (ġnb, grape(s)), Sabaean 𐩲𐩬𐩨 (ʿnb, vineyard), Ge'ez ሕንባብ (ḥənbab), ሕባብ (ḥəbab, grape; grain), and thus حَبّ (ḥabb, seed), and Akkadian 𒄧 (inbum, fruit) with its many derivatives.
