Drink Senior Member New England English - New England, Russian - Moscow Sep 4, 2023 #2 There are two paradigms for hollow roots in nif'al: נָקוֹל and נִקּוֹל. My guess is the former is more Biblical and the latter is more Mishnaic. נָכוֹן is of the former pattern, while נֵעוֹר is of the latter pattern.
