Proto-Slavic

Etymology

Of non-Indo-European origin. Phonetically the best match is Old Turkic *baran (“walking, going”), from Proto-Turkic *baran (“one that goes”),[1][2][3] but semantics are questionable (as well as the reason for borrowing such a common noun). If correct, one of very few Proto-Slavic loans from a Turkic language. Compare Albanian berr (“sheep”).

*baranъ m

  1. ram (male sheep)
