Ugaritic word of the day: Qẓ /qēẓu/, "summer". Cf. Hebrew qayiṣ ("summer") and Arabic qayẓ- ("summer heat"). Aramaic has an early (OA) form with Geers'-dissimilation of the emphatics: kyṣʾ (note the ṣ here, which prob. denotes an interdental) and a later form qyṭ(ʾ).

My personal guess for the pronunciation of the Ugaritic word in IPA: [q'e:θˤ'u] or [qe:θˤ'u].

Egyptian word of the day: Rḫ.kwj ("I know") - the form in the stative, one of the generally best-preserved Proto-Afro-Asiatic forms, in the 1 sg, in -kw(j), cognate with Akkadian -āku, and ultimately, the Arabic and Hebrew 1sg perfects in -tu and -tî (after much transformation).

This reference to the article my father Örjan Wikander and yours truly wrote together about water-milling in the HB and Mishnaic/Talmudic literature and Levantine archaeology made me very happy:
