Word: че́рен
Near etymology: I, обычно черено́к, чере́нья мн., чере́нье собир., сиб., укр. че́ре́н "черенок, лемех", блр. черено́к, др.-русск. черенъ -- то же, русск.-цслав. чрѣнъ λαβή, болг. црен, сербохорв. цре̏н, словен. črẹ̑n, чеш. střen м., střena "рукоятка", třeň "черенок", слвц. črienka "черенок ножа", польск. trzon, trzonek "рукоять", в.-луж. črjonk, н.-луж. cŕonk.
Further etymology: Праслав. *čеrnъ, вероятно, связано чередованием гласных с ко́рень, лит. kẽras "куст, корень, пень", др.-прусск. kirnо "куст", греч. κράνος, лат. cornus "корнелиева вишня" (см. выше, ко́рень). Разграничение слов *černъ "рукоятка" и *černъ "черенок дерева" (Мi. ЕW 34; Остен-Сакен, IF 22, 315) оспаривается Бернекером (I, 146), точно так же как и сравнение с ирл. сrаnn ср. р. "дерево", кимр. рrеnn "arbor, lignum" (Бецценбергер у Стокса 63). Однако любопытно сравнение слова černъ "рукоятка" с др.-инд. kárṇas "ушко, рукоять, держак", кимр. саrn "ручка"; см. Цупица, ВВ 25, 102; Остен-Сакен, там же, 316; Торбьёрнссон 1, 35; 2, 13 и сл.; Педерсен, Kelt. Gr. 1, 61; М.--Э. 2, 161 и сл. Иначе о др.-инд. слове Майрхофер 172.

Comments: EAS 88, 113, Цинциус 1984, 118, Дыбо 316-317. The Turkic vowel is not quite clear: cf. the variant *Kuŕguk; perhaps the forms reveal a variation *Kuŕgak / *Kaŕguk in early Turkic. altet-prnum,altet-meaning,altet-rusmean,altet-turc,altet-mong,altet-tung,altet-kor,altet-reference,
