Dechich arabice farina.
Apparatus:
farina f | farĩa B | ferina ACD | firina e
Translation:
Dechich is Arabic for Latin farina {"flour"}.
Commentary:
Wehr: ﺩﻗﻴﻖ /daqīq/ "{i.a.} flour, meal".
Ms. f still has the correct form farina; B, the early Zarotus print of 1473, has farĩa; after that a printing error crept in - ferina - which was subsequently copied by other early prints.
