The Egyptian writing system has nothing to do with rafsi classifiers = on
borrowed words. A better natlang example of a type-3 fu'ivla is "w= eeverfish"
(or "weaverfish"), where "weever" is from Old French an= d "fish" is native.

It could be "granatu" or "granato" in my opinion,= but I prefer both of them to
"granate", which is the vocative, which was lost.

Another possibility is "rimbone" or "rumbona", from Sem= itic, with "b" thrown
in for the morphology.
