Proto-Celtic
Etymology
Usually derived from Proto-Indo-European *pr̥h₃-snéh₂, from *perh₃- (“to grant”), related to Latin pars (“part”).[1][2][3] Matasovic suggests that the short *a could be the result of Dybo's law, or perhaps "liquid metathesis".[4] Vasmer connects it with Proto-Indo-European *h₂rey- (“to count, arrange”).[5]
