| Rezumat: | [Recycling proper names into zoonyms as a neologisation device, 1: Coinages by Abramowitsch (1866, 1872)] This study is devoted to a discussion of occurrences, in Modern and Israeli Hebrew zoonymy, of the neologisation device of taking a proper name (a place-name or a personal name), typically from the Hebrew Bible and remotivating it semantically (some call such reinterpretation metanalysis), so it would denote a particular zoological taxon. We consider in turn how the name for a station of the Exodus was remotivated by Abramowitsch’s (1866) as a neologised Modern Hebrew name for the Wagtail (Motacilla), then his neologism for the waterfowl genus Mergus (by resorting to a biblical toponym, and involving metathesis). German Olm and the biblical toponym Almon were sources in Abramowitsch (1872), for naming in Modern Hebrew the olm (Proteus anguinus), a blind amphibian endemic to the subterranean waters of caves in Slovenia. Abraham’s interlocutor Ephron provided the motivation (by interpreting it from a name for ‘sand’) for Abramowitsch’s (1866) name for the Larks (Alaudidae). |
