peal pael aphel

[Jerry]

One thing I looked at yesterday was a root that had a very defined translation for the peal and pael, where there could be little dispute on the translation itself. It is the ZBN root for "buy" and "sell". Peal is the "buy" and Pael the "sell". In that case, "sell" is actually an antonym of "buy". Although, it might be loosely regarded as a resultant condition of to "buy", considering that one typically has to buy first, before they can sell. As in "buy so-as-to sell".

Just some rambling thoughts, I guess.
