Senses
1. oppression, extortion — The noun 'osheq denotes the act or condition of oppression, extortion, or unjust exploitation of others. All four clusters carry the same core meaning with only prepositional and article variation (bare form, with article ha-, with preposition be- 'by/with', with preposition min 'from', and construct state). Multilingual glosses confirm semantic unity: Spanish 'opresion/lo defraudado', Hindi 'atyachar/shoshan' (oppression/exploitation), Arabic 'zulman/al-mazluwma/az-zulmi/bi-az-zulmi' (all from the z-l-m root for injustice), Korean 'apje/eokap' (oppression/suppression), and Swahili 'udhalimu/dhuluma/ukandamizaji' (injustice/oppression). No semantic distinction warrants separate senses -- these are morphosyntactic variants. 15×
