is it Was-sceptre or Wad-sceptre or usha-sceptre ?

[Maakhri2024]

What are your thoughts on their goddess ‘Bastet’? Sounds exactly like the Somali word bisad, Bastet was a cat too. I’m almost convinced this was just another Cushitic language at this point, although I’m no expert.

bisad , cat are related words .
bis = cat (kat ) ,
( -ta / -da is a Somali feminine definite suffix ) ,
bis +da = cat (kat ) .
i think bisad came from the word fadhiisato ( fa dhii sa to ) . which means that the one who is always sitting ( stand still ) .

fa - dh - ii - sa - to ,

fa - dh - sa - to → ba - s - t -et .

fa - dhii - sa - to → ba - sa - to - et ( bastet ) .​
