arm, physical limb; might, power, forces; shoulder, foreleg of animal
2. might, power, forces — Metonymic extension of arm to denote strength, might, or military forces, where the physical limb is no longer in view and the word means raw power or armed troops; distinguished by Swahili shifting to nguvu (strength/power) instead of mkono (arm), Arabic ذُو سَاعِدٍ (possessor of strong arm), and English glossing as forces rather than arm. 4×
