At least in Arabic, "Arabic" and "Hebrew" are nearly the same word: عربي vs عبري.

Interesting...

In Hebrew, "Hebrew" is (`ivrit), and "Arabic" is (`ravit)...

Actually, Arabic and Hebrew are alarmingly (but not surprisingly) similar. Consider 'shalom' vs. 'salaam', for just one example.

So there is perhaps a little more difference than between English and American.

Nah. They're about as similar as English and German.
