From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. In linguistics and ethnology, Semitic (from the Biblical "Shem", Hebrew: שם, translated as "name", Arabic: ساميّ) was first used to refer to a language family of largely Middle Eastern origin, now called the Semitic languages. This family includes the ancient and modern forms of Akkadian, Amharic, Arabic, Aramaic, Ge'ez, Hebrew, Maltese, Phoenician, Tigre and Tigrinya among others. As language studies are interwoven with cultural studies, the term also came to describe the extended cultures and ethnicities, as well as the history of these varied peoples as associated by close geographic and linguistic distribution.

Isn't forty years under a brutal occupation rather anti-Arab and anti-Palestinian? Wouldn't anti-Semitism be more racism and religious discrimination towards Jewish people?

Q. Are these words interchangeable i.e do they mean the same thing? Are any of them considered offensive. Asked by mangi ps - Fri Jul 14 07:41:20 2006 - - 10 Answers - 1 Comments A. The words are not interchangeable, and don't mean the same thing. They are not considered offensive when used in proper context -- but then, you can say that about almost any word, can't you? Jew refers to religion. Hebrew is a language and is also used to refer to people who speak that language. An Israeli is a resident of Israel (All Israeli's are not Jewish) and Semitic refers to a race of people. Traditionally, the Semites are people who are descendants of Shem (book of Genesis) and this includes the Hebrews, Arameans, Phoenicians, Arabs and Assyrians. Hope this is helpful.
