Серия статей, Journal of Language relations, 3: 2010 - p. 43-78 (Items 1-34); 5: 2011 - p. 69-95 (Items 35-54); 7: 2012 - p. 71-104 (Items 55-74); 11: 2014 - p. 159-186 (Items 75-100); 13/1-2: 2015 - p. 91-138 (Addenta and conclusion)The paper presents a detailed etymological analysis of the Swadesh 100 wordlist as attested in most of the living and extinct Semitic languages, aiming at a maximally precise lexical reconstruction of these items for Proto-Semitic as well as intermediate stages (West Semitic, South Semitic, etc.). All the etymologies are meticulously accompanied with evaluations of alternative possibilities of reconstruction, potential external parallels in other Afroasiatic languages, and — occasionally — discussions of a more generally methodological character.
