Roots
Latin noxa (injury, hurt, damage) is
traced to Indo-European root nek (death).
NaKHaH is the root of הכה HeeKaH., "to kill" (II, Samuel11:15),
as well as to defeat, beat or strike. The smitting of crops by plagues in
Egypt uses the Noon-Kaf verb in Exodus chapter 9, verses 31 and 32. NeeG[A]h
is to strike, afflict or infect.
Branches
Cognates include
INNOCENT (see below), INNOCUOUS, INTERNECINE, NECRO-, NECROMANCY, NECTAR,
NECTARINE, NOYADE, NUISANCE, OBNOXIOUS and PERNICIOUS.
NaKAh is
smitten or afflicted; NaG(aF) is to smite, injure or plague; NeG(eF) is a
stumbling block; and NaG[A]h is to strike or afflict. These Hebrew terms better
match up to Latin nocere (to injure, hurt) than does the given IE
root.
Part of the
Noon-Kaf involves medical harm, and Chinese gan (typically reversed) is
an element in several diseases. See NICK.
The NC in
INNOCENCE and the NK (reversed as usual) in the Japanese word for innocent, adokenai,
might reflect NaQeeY (innocent Exodus 23:7).
