  1. first-person plural non-past active jussive of طَارَ (ṭāra)

North Levantine Arabic

Etymology

From Arabic نَظَرَ (naẓara). The voiceless quality of the stop is irregular. It might have been influenced by the t in related اِنْتَظَرَ (intaẓara) (through coalescence of ت and ظ, leading to it being reinterpreted as a Form I verb), or perhaps by Aramaic נְטַר (nəṭar).

Verb

نطر • (naṭar) I (non-past ينطر (yunṭur))

  1. to wait
