Etymology 1 edit

Traditionally, tur is derived from kur (where) by analogy with pairs like kas (who, what) : tas (that), (how) : (thus, like that). A more recent suggestion is that tur may come from Proto-Baltic *tur, from the zero grade *tr̥ of Proto-Indo-European *ter-, the source of several nouns, adverbs or prepositions meaning “through,” “across,” “away”: German durch (through) (compare Old High German duruh, from *tr̥-kʷe), Breton treu (beyond), dre (through) (*tre), Latin trāns (over, across, beyond). The meaning in Latvian would have been changed to “there” under the influence of kur.[1]
