Loanwords used in the Quran
The Classical Arabic used in the Quran includes loanwords from other Semitic languages and non-Semitic languages. The former words are difficult to distinguish due to common linguistic etymology [1]. According to Rippin, more than 300 words in the Quran are borrowed from Hebrew, Syriac, Aramaic, Nabataean, Persian, Coptic, Latin, Greek and Utopian[clarification needed].[2]
