Proto-Slavic edit

Etymology edit

Either:

For meaning shift compare Latin nātiō (birth; that which is born; living creature; human race, clan, tribe; people, nation).

Jay H. Jasanoff proposes a shift in stress to the second syllable according to Dybo's law,[1] however, apparently this contradicts the Old East Slavic forms на́род (národ) and народы̀ (narodỳ), where the forms are enclinomena.

Noun edit

*nȃrodъ or *naròdъ m[2][3][4]

  1. that which is born
  2. people, nation
