Proto-Turkic

Etymology

Possibly borrowed from Northeastern Iranian,^[1]^[2] from Proto-Iranian *Hr̥pā́š (“barley”), or perhaps Tocharian,^[3] both from Proto-Indo-European *h₂élbʰit. Alternatively from *ar- (“to multiply oneself, be numerous”), whence Old Turkic (arka, “multitude, crowd”).^[4] The term appears to be related to Proto-Mongolic *arbaï (“barley”) as well, possibly through borrowing. Compare also Mongolian арвай (arvaj), Dongxiang apa.^[5]^[6]

Noun
