Proto-Turkic

Etymology

Possibly borrowed from Northeastern Iranian,[1][2] from Proto-Iranian *Hr̥pā́š (barley), or perhaps Tocharian,[3] both from Proto-Indo-European *h₂élbʰit. Alternatively from *ar- (to multiply oneself, be numerous), whence Old Turkic [script needed] (arka, multitude, crowd).[4] The term appears to be related to Proto-Mongolic *arbaï (barley) as well, possibly through borrowing. Compare also Mongolian арвай (arvaj), Dongxiang apa.[5][6]

Noun

*arpa[7][2]
