Etymology

ᚱᚨᚢᚾ (raun, to test, to try) +‎ -ᛃᚨᛉ (-jaʀ, coming, descending, originating from). The first element is probably related to Old Norse reyna (to try, to prove), (Icelandic reyna (to try), Faroese royna (to experience) and Swedish utröna (find out)). The suffix, -ᛃᚨᛉ (-jaʀ) is the same as in ᚺᛟᛚᛏᛁᛃᚨᛉ (holtijaʀ) (Golden Horns of Gallehus); since the root syllable, raun- is heavy, the suffix becomes -ijaz, in accordance with Siever's law.
