1. knead (work dough) — To knead dough, working flour and water into a mass for baking. All four clusters represent the same verb לוּשׁ (lush) in different conjugations: consecutive imperfect 3fs ('and she kneaded'), feminine singular imperative ('knead!'), feminine plural participle ('are kneading'), and Qal infinitive with preposition ('from kneading'). Arabic consistently uses عَجَنَ (ʿajana, 'to knead'), Korean uses 반죽하다 (banjukhada, 'to knead'), Hindi uses गूंधना/गुनधना (gūṃdhnā, 'to knead'), Swahili uses -kanda ('to knead'), and Spanish uses amasar ('to knead'). No semantic distinction exists between these purely inflectional variants. 6×
