Original Note:
Semitic languages share a common root, such as Arabic, Aramaic and Hebrew. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Semitic Wilhelm Marr, a Jew-hater, coined the term anti-Semite to legitimize bigotry by labeling Jews "Semites", thus not "real Germans". It's a fake word and why antisemitism is no longer hyphenated. https://www.britannica.com/biography/Wilhelm-Marr
