Reconstruction:Proto-Turkic/üŕ-
Proto-Turkic
editEtymology
editAccording to logic of Turkic initial-∅, Mongolic initial-h and Tungusic initial-p, compared to Proto-Mongolic *hürü- (“to rub, grate, file”) and Proto-Tungusic *puru- (“to crush”). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?) Only if it is related to these verbs can be reconstructed as *üŕ-.
