ALFRÉD TÓTH : HUNGARIAN AND ESKIMO-ALEUT — with Paleo-Siberian Cognates<br />
Proto-Turkic *Ara-<br />
Proto-Mongolic *(h)ara-<br />
Proto-Tungusic *para-<br />
Proto-Uralic *parз, *porз “group, mass, pile”<br />
Komi, Udmurt pur “raft”<br />
Proto-<strong>Eskimo</strong> *paRt∂(R) “string, rope”<br />
Central Asian Yupik paXtak “spruce root stretched above water’s surface”<br />
Sumerian bur, wr. ĝešbur “a tree” (inherited Hung. p-).<br />
<strong>Hungarian</strong> paskolni “to clap, to slap, to hit”<br />
Proto-<strong>Eskimo</strong> *pat∂γ- “to slap”<br />
Sumerian pašu (1x: Old Babylonian) wr. pa-a-šu "type of axe". Inherited Hung.<br />
p- (EWU, p. 1123: onomatopoetic).<br />
<strong>Hungarian</strong> patak “brook”<br />
<strong>Eskimo</strong>-<strong>Aleut</strong> p∂t∂- “to penetrate”<br />
Sumerian pu (95x: ED IIIb, Ur III, Old Babylonian, Middle Babylonian) wr. pu2<br />
“well; fish pond; source (of river)” + tag4 “to open” (Oberhuber 1990,<br />
p. 465). Inherited Hung. p- (EWU, p. 1129: borowed from a Slavonic<br />
language).<br />
<strong>Hungarian</strong> peregni “to move in a circle, to rate”<br />
Proto-Altaic *p’erkV “to tie around, to surround”<br />
Proto-Mongolic *hergi-<br />
Proto-Tungusic *perke-<br />
Proto-Uralic (?),<br />
Proto-Finno-Ugric *pire(-), pirä(-) “circle, ring; to enclose, to surround”<br />
Proto-<strong>Eskimo</strong> *p∂R∂- “to bend, to flex”<br />
Sumerian bir (37x: Ur III, Old Babylonian) wr. bir; bi-bi-re; bir9 “to scatter,<br />
disperse”<br />
<strong>Hungarian</strong> perem “edge, rim, margin, seam”<br />
Proto-Altaic *p’èrì “edge”<br />
Inuit p’∂lXaŋ “cheek”<br />
Chukotko-Kamch. ∂lp∂-lŋ∂n “id.” (with metathesis)<br />
Sumerian bar (2579x: ED IIIa, ED IIIb, Ebla, Old Akkadian, Lagash II, Ur III,<br />
Early Old Babylonian, Old Babylonian) wr. bar; ba-ra; bala; bur<br />
“outside, (other) side; behind; outer form, outer; fleece; outsider,<br />
strange; back, shoulder; liver; because of; to set aside; to cut open, slit,<br />
split”. Without doubt also related is Sum. par (130x: ED IIIa, ED IIIb,<br />
Old Akkadian, Ur III, Old Babylonian) wr. pa5; pa6 “(small) canal,<br />
irrigation ditch” (cf. the name of the river Ó-Perint in Vas megye). The<br />
etymology given by EWU, p. 1145 (Germ. Bräme “seam”) is thus<br />
mistaken, <strong>and</strong> we have another proof for inherited Hung. p-.<br />
