Proto-Mongolian: *ǯirge-
Altaic etymology: Altaic etymology
Meaning: to pinch (hair, etc.)
Russian meaning: щипать (волосы и т.п.)
Khalkha: ǯirge-
Buriat: žarxi-
Comments: The meaning 'pinch (hair)' is hardly related to the other meaning of ǯirge-, 'cut, split' (on which see under *ǯī́re); it is most probably an accidental homonymy.
