Proto-Eskimo: *tapǝʁ-na
Meaning: grass on seashore
Russian meaning: трава (прибрежная)
Comments: The inclusion of this root into one entry with *tap(ǝ)ʁa- 'rope, strap, belt' in CED is absurd. It should rather be connected to *tapʁa- 'foreland, tundra, sand bar of shore'. Comparative Eskimo Dictionary: 331
