What is
this building called (and what is the derivation thereof) in those Earth
languages that have *not* borrowed/adapted the Greek/European word "museum"?
E.g. Arabic? Japanese? Chinese? Hindi? Navajo? etc.
In the meantime, how about *{bey' qach} or *{bey'qach}? >>

bey'qach sounds pretty good to me. The Chinese is bo-wu-guan, meaning
literally "many things hall."
