Ani vs. Anoki

As opposed to the comment, as I recall, both Ani and Anoki are common Afro-Asiatic pronouns, with different theories as to why there would be two different 1st person pronouns (gender, etc). Canaanite using 'Anoki', except for Mishnaic (and later) Hebrew borrowing Ani from Aramaic. That is, 'ana/i' would be less of a AfroAsiatic 'retention'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.84.24.136 (talk) 01:21, 2006 January 26 (UTC)

Ok, I'ved removed the this is a common retention from proto-Afro-Asiatic., both Ani and Anoki as present in proto-afro-asiatics, I don't remember specific non-semitic AfroAsiatics with either. There's several theories about the use, I think the popular one assumes them to be used for different gendered, but with no hard-evidence, ie, no recorded or spoken language that has both pronounes at the same period

Citations?

I'm surprised that an article with that importance is full of claims without any sufficient citation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Crazyketchupguy (talk • contribs) 18:38, 2020 August 10 (UTC)

Hello. There is one article about Pyramid of king Unas at Sakkara in Egypt. It'll be good to mention It. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/01/070129100250.htm Cassa342 (talk) 16:09, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
