Proto-Eskimo: *piʁlaɣ
Meaning: sled runner
Russian meaning: полоз саней
Comments: This stem looks like it could be related to *pǝʁlǝ-ʁ- 'to squat down, joint, knee', but the resemblance is most probably accidental since the Inupik and Yupik materials display a clear -i- in the first syllable. Comparative Eskimo Dictionary: 264
