Etymology

Abaev considered the word to be a "Caucasian" borrowing, comparing it to Georgian ტალი (ṭali, flint), Svan ტოლ (ṭol), Chechen тӏулг (tʼulg, stone), Ingush тӏолг (tʼolg).[1] Bielmeier and Cheung consider such connection to be phonologically difficult; following Bailey, Cheung notes a possible Iranian correspondence in Khotanese dūra (hard; hard clod or stone), comparing both words to Latin durus (hard).[2][3]

Noun

дур (dur)

  1. stone
