Senses
1. wheat (grain crop) — Wheat as a cereal grain crop, one of the primary agricultural products of ancient Israel, mentioned in harvest contexts (Gen 30:14; Exod 34:22; Judg 6:11; Ruth 2:23; 1 Sam 6:13; 12:17), as trade goods (1 Kgs 5:11; 2 Chr 2:10, 15; Ezra 6:9; Ezek 27:17), and in offerings (Num 18:12). All three clusters represent the same noun in different syntactic positions: plain nominal 'wheat / the wheat' (arb: قَمْح / الْقَمْح, kor: 밀을/밀과, swa: ngano), construct/genitive 'of wheat' (arb: الْحِنْطَةِ / حِنْطَةٍ, hin: गेहूँ की, kor: 밀의, swa: ya ngano), and prepositional 'with wheat of' (arb: بِحِنْطَةِ, kor: 밀로, swa: kwa ngano ya). All languages uniformly translate as wheat — spa: trigo, hin: गेहूँ/गेहूं, kor: 밀, swa: ngano — confirming a single undifferentiated sense. 30×
