Mongolian
Etymology
Cognate with Kalmyk өрә (örä, “room, a half of a yurt”) with several possible explanations:
- Deriving from the same root as өрөөл (örööl, “half, one of a pair”), өрөөсөн (öröösön, “odd, unpaired”), originally denoting a half of a yurt.
- From the same root as өр (ör, “interior, heart”).
- өрөх (öröx, “to arrange, to lay”) + -өө(н) (-öö(n)), unlikely due to lack of -n in Kalmyk.
