אושׁ אישׁ,‎ (Stem assumed in Thes for אִישׁ‎; existence & meaning somewhat dubious Thes (Add) & most derive אִישׁ‎ from [אִנְשְׁ‎] √ אנשׁ‎ (q. v.) In favour are plural אֲנָשִׁים‎, feminine אִשָּׁה‎ = [אִנְשָׁה‎], lack of proven √ אישׁ‎, & lack of clear parallels for אישׁ‎ in cognate languages. Against the derivation of אִישׁ‎ from inš is the vocalization (ִ  י‎, and that fully written, not ֵ‎), maintained even with suffixes, the (rare) plural אִישִׁים‎, the impossibility of deriving אִישׁ‎ & אִשָּׁה‎ from same √ (אִשָּׁה‎ from ), the existence of אֱנוֺשׁ‎ as parallel form, and the (exceptional) parallel Aramaic איש‎ (Inscription of Carpentras), also Arabic (compare Frey) || ; MI, SI, Phoenician אש‎ are not decisive; Sabean has both אסם‎ & אנסם‎; the former apparently = אִישׁ‎, the latter אֱנוֺשׁ‎; but on former compare DHM^{ZK 1884, 360 &} SabDenkm^{37. On the} whole, probability seems to favour √ אישׁ‎; Thes gave meaning be strong; Dl^{HA 9, Pr 161} compare Assyrian išanu, strong (compare Dl^{w. p. 244}), & proper name יְהוֺאָשׁ‎; compare also Prät^{LOPh Feb. 1884}; otherwise DHM^{l. e. & ZMG 1883, 330} & especially Nö^{ZMG 1886, 739} Lag^{BN 68}; compare also Wetzst in De^{Psalmen, ed. 4, p. 888} and others see also אֱנוֺשׁ אנשׁ,‎).
