Трудиться, не жалея сил. Такое значение представлена также у болг. жаля ('жалеть, беречь, щадить'). В других слав. языках это значение, кажется, не представлено.
Это другой переход (можно сделать): to feel pity -> to spare (AZ): русский, болгарский
Караимская реализация - это еще третий переход: to regret -> to spare. Надо сделать и перенести эту реализацию. AZ: А точно, что это не to feel pity -> to spare, см. выше?
