How the two words are related

Loanword

Borrowed between the languages (or by both from a third).

Arabic root

ط-ر-ي

Hebrew root

ט-ר-י

Hebrew tari (טרי), 'fresh', isn't inherited straight from Biblical Hebrew — it came in through Aramaic, which shares this exact ṭ-r-y root with Arabic. Hebrew and Arabic end up close cousins here, but by way of a detour through Aramaic.
