Etymology
نَشَر comes from the triliteral Semitic root ن-ش-ر, whose core sense is to spread or scatter something out. From this base grew related meanings: unfolding cloth, scattering news, and later, in modern usage, publishing in print or online. The root shows the same pattern found across Semitic languages, where a physical action of spreading extends naturally to the spread of information.
