Proto-Slavic

Etymology

Uncertain:

  • Possibly borrowed from Bulgar 𐰆𐰍𐰔 (*oǧur-) (whence also Byzantine Greek Όνόγουροι (Ónógouroi)), the name of the Onoğurs, probably meaning "the ten tribes", from Old Turkic 𐰆𐰣 (on, “ten”) + 𐰆𐰍𐰔 (oɣuz, “tribe”) (see the Wikipedia article on Onoğurs).[1][2]
  • Alternatively borrowed from an early stage of Proto-Permic (whence Komi-Zyrian йӧгра (jögra)), with the loss of an initial j- (*jǫgъrinъ > *ǫgъrinъ). The initial consonant is seen in the Old East Slavic form югра (jugra).[3] It is argued that it is improbable that this term was borrowed as late as the 7th century, considering the much earlier arrival of the Hungarians.[4]
