وتين

Arabic

Etymology

Since the aorta supplies the cardiovascular system blood, perhaps a trace of Proto-Semitic *watan- (“to give”) put forward by a minority as the actual base verb “to give” which نَتَنَ (natana, “to stink”) derives from. وَتَنَ (watana) supposedly means “to be inexhaustible, to perpetual” of sources flowing without cease, parallelling like-patterned وَرِيد (warīd, “vein”) being related to وِرْد (wird, “watering-hole”).
