قِنّ

قُنّ (noun)

Etymology: Compare the widespread Aramaic ܩܸܢܵܐ / קִנָא / קֵינָא (qennā, “nest; animal burrow; any cluster; family of an animal”), Hebrew קֵן (qēn, “nest”), Akkadian 𒆥𒉡 (qinnu, “nest; lair; family of an animal”). Since this term is spread chiefly in Asiatic Arabic north of Najd, it is probably a continuation of the Aramaic. It is further connected back to Akkadian qanû (“to keep, to buy, to acquire”), itself with relations to Akkadian 𒂵𒈾𒉡 (ganānu, “to confine, especially a person or living thing”), and Akkadian 𒅗𒈾𒉡 (kanānu, “to twist or coil, to wrap up an object or possession”), of Proto-Semitic origin denoting concepts of crafting, to acquire or make, building up, to establish or make stay.

Meaning: coop for domestic birds to be fattened, pen for poultry, brooding cage, henhouse, pigeon’s home and the like
