[And what do we think about sarno (QL:82)? Does it mean rather tablet, since it is connected with the concept of 'stone'?]

+Ицхак Пензев
well tablet is just the diminutive of table, isn't it, the two words are related.
I don't think it's a problem if sarno is originating from 'stone' we have a lot of words in our IRL languages like that, with meaning drifting away from the original.

I meant the tablets of the Law in the Jewish Bible. They were made of stone, weren't they?

+Ицхак Пензев
yes. So were the Roman tablets for writing (of slate).

+Tamas Ferencz but does it mean that they are the same thing as a piece of furniture? I think they aren't.
