Other Old Indo-Aryan

especially OIA prototypes in Turner’s dictionary when not attested in Sanskrit

cīḍa-, *cīda-, *cīlā-, cillā-, etc. (Turner 4837: various tree names): perhaps members of an expressive word family for ‘sticky, oily, thick’, ‘gummy matter’, etc., and *‘exuding resin’, *‘exuding gum’. 2009b: 13-14.

Latin

persica: the coupled designation of ‘peach’ as ‘Persian fruit’ and ‘apricot’ as ‘Armenian fruit’ in Greek and Latin is probably a calque from Parthian (whose empire was located between Persia and Armenia). 2009b: 8 fn. 33.

porrō ‘further, onwards’: not inherited from IE, but borrowed from dialectal (Euboean) Greek πόρρω < πόρσω, since the latter is best explained from πρόσω < *protyō (Chantraine, DELG, s. v.).

 

Germanic

Gothic fairra, English far: from IE *pérrē < *pérh2-eh1 ‘beyond’, instrumental singular of *pérh2-o- (adj.) ‘situated beyond’. (Slight modification of García Ramón’s etymology.) 2009b: 20 fn. 89-90.

Gemination in some adverbs of movement: perhaps by analogy of inn, where it may have been a means of giving the word more weight. 2009b: 21 fn. 92.
