Linguists are thinking now they were maybe a little to quick in grouping MSAL with Ethio-Semitic. There are some phonological affinities but they are commonalities with Proto-Semitic that have been retained by Ethio-Semitic and MSA (glottalized rather than pharyngeal emphatics, for example), but not necessarily suggesting special relationship between these two groups.
