<p> ''''' pal ''''' - ''''' an ''''' - ''''' kēn ''''' ´: In Song of Solomon 3:9 occurs אפּריון , <i> ''''''appiryōn''''' </i> , a word that has no Semitic cognates and is of dubious meaning. In form, however, it resembles the [[Sanskrit]] <i> '''''paryañka''''' </i> , and still more closely the Greek φορεῖον , <i> '''''phoreı́on''''' </i> , both of which mean "litter bed." Hence, the Revised Version (British and American) "palanquin" (ultimately derived from <i> '''''paryañka''''' </i> ). The margin "car of state" and the King James Version "chariot" are mere guesses. </p> | |||
== The Nuttall Encyclopedia <ref name="term_77731" /> == | |||
<p> In India and China a covered conveyance for one person borne on the shoulders of men. </p> | |||
