From Common Slavonic брѣгъ from Proto-Indo-European *bʰergʰ (“‘height’”). Cognate with Proto-Germanic *bergoz (English barrow, German Berg), Old Irish brigh (“‘mountain’”), Armenian բարձր (bardzr), “‘high’”).

[edit] Noun

берег (béreg) m.

N.B.— The irregular plural берега is actually an old dual form, since rivers have two of them.
