мора

From Old East Slavic море (more), from Proto-Slavic *moře, from Proto-Indo-European *móri.

мо́ра • (móra) n inan (genitive мо́ра, nominative plural мо́ры, genitive plural мо́раў)

1. sea

Borrowed from Russian мо́ре (móre).

Found only in моратбок (“northern lights”), and thus dictionaries do not list this term.

Ket people did not traditionally have a word for 'sea', (see дэʼ (deˀ, “lake, bog”), for comparison,) since traditionally they had not access to any open seas, and lived mostly around the swampy and thick forests of the left flank of the Yenisei River.

• IPA^(key):

мора • (mora) third-singular present, impf

1. to have to, must

   Мораш да одиш. ― Moraš da odiš. ― You must go.

   Ова мора да помогне. ― Ova mora da pomogne. ― This has to help.

• This verb may be conjugated according to the person of the subject, but it may also be used impersonally, i.e. only in the third person singular forms, just like треба (treba) always is. The latter form of usage may be perceived as implying a weaker obligation, though.

• треба (treba)

• мор (mor)

Like Komi-Zyrian муравны (muravny, “to grumble; to howl ”), of onomatopoetic origin, compare Eastern Mari муро (muro, “song”).
