Proto-Altaic: *si̯ū́ra
Meaning: arrow; fight, battle, success in battle
Russian meaning: стрела; битва, удача в бою
Comments: The Korean reflex is somewhat dubious, being traditionally derived < *sār- 'to live' (sară-čap- = 'to take alive'). This, however, may be a secondary folk etymology, the original meaning of the compound being 'to take booty'.

Russian meaning: соревнование в стрельбе
Written Mongolian: surčin (L 738: sur 'archer's target', 739: surčin 'archer') Buriat: hurša 'arrow'

Comments: KW 338. Mong. sur 'archer's target' is being confused with sur(an) 'leather belt, strap' (borrowed from Turkic, see ...) and sometimes glossed as 'archer's target made of leather straps' - most probably a result of folk etymology. monget-prnum,monget-meaning,monget-rusmean,monget-wmo,monget-bur,monget-kal,monget-reference,
