Has also been linked with various non-Indo-European words: Proto-Semitic *ʔarṣ́- (earth), Sumerian 𒀀𒁕𒅈 (a-da-ar, meadow), 𒀀𒃼 (A.GAR3), 𒅊 (AGAR4, field), Akkadian 𒀀𒃼 (A.GAR3 /⁠ugāru⁠/, (communally controlled) meadow), Hurrian 𒅈𒋼 (ar-te /⁠arde⁠/), Urartian 𒅈𒁲𒉌 (ar-di-ni /⁠ardi-ne⁠/, town), Chechen урд (urd), in plural ардаш (ardaš), Ingush урд (urd, plot of arable land, allotment).[9][10][11][12]
