This takes me back to a strong (no pun intended) note of caution given
by a lecturer at Cambridge.  He is a Hebrew expert, and warned us to be
VERY cautious with research based on 'roots'.  He gave a couple of
English examples, and pointed out the words 'ladybird', (Americans more
sensibly call it a 'ladybug' which works properly), but
'ladybird'  .... ? His other example was 'butterfly'.  He assured us
that Hebrew has at least as many such anomalies.
