Basque etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Basque: *malka-r̄
Meaning: straw (of vetch)
Low Navarrese: malkar
Roncalese: malkar
Comments: Here, as in some other cases, Bsq preserves the internal *-l- reconstructed for PEC from circumstantial evidence, though /l/ as such is not attested in any modern EC language. (Cf. Bsq *hols or *holc 'plank' ~ PEC *ħwǟls_ǝ̆). Bsq malk(h)ar 'terreno muy costanero é infructífero, escabroso' (Azkue) is semantically incompatible with *malka-r̄ 'straw' and is a homonym.
