Indeed, this is the first occurrence of the root nṭq, which is well-attested in Classical Arabic. Ibn Manẓūr lists <em>takallama </em>""to speak"" as a synonym of the verb <em>naṭaqa</em>. With the mīm prefix, as here, the meaning is ""speech"" or, by extension, ""one who speaks well."" <em>Manṭiq </em>comes to mean ""logic"" in Classical Arabic, perhaps as a calque of the Greek <em>lōgikē </em>from <em>lōgōs ""</em>word"" (R. Arnaldez, ""Manṭiḳ,"" in <em>Encyclopaedia of Islam New Edition Online</em>, edited by P. Bearman).</p>",Cody Beasley,"Firʿ Wādī al-Ḫuḍarī, Al-Mafraq Governorate, Jordan",https://ociana.osu.edu/inscriptions/44163
