Altaic etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Altaic: *p`ire ( ~ -ŕ-)
Meaning: bank, steep bank
Russian meaning: берег, крутой берег
Comments: The comparison of PTM *piri with PT *jạ̄r (АПиПЯЯ 13) should be abandoned, since it does not explain PT closed *ạ (on the etymology of the Turkic word see rather *ǯḗro). For a possible Korean parallel see under *p`i̯ṓlo. Cf. *p`èrì. altet-meaning,altet-rusmean,altet-mong,altet-tung,altet-jap,altet-reference,
