Crimean Gothic[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Probably from Proto-Germanic *burjōną. Akin to Gothic 𐌲𐌰𐌱𐌰𐌿𐍂𐌾𐍉𐌸𐌿𐍃 (gabaurjōþus, “pleasure”). Krause & Slocum argue that the ending may reflect the Proto-Germanic nominative singular ending *-az.[1]
Noun[edit]
borrotsch
- desire
- 1562, Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq, (Please provide the book title or journal name):
- Borrotsch. Voluntas.
- (please add an English translation of this quotation)
Usage notes[edit]
The Latin gloss is possibly a misprint for voluptas (“pleasure”).
