Ket

[edit]

Etymology 1

[edit]

Inherited from Proto-Ketic *aqʌ (“rot, go sour”, verb base),[1][2] with parallels seen in distantly related Kott and Arin (Kott bâgejaŋ (“I let it rot.”), Arin baroe (“It rotted.”)).[3]

(Editor's note: Kott and Arin cognates are verbal phrases with Proto-Yeniseian *-b- (verb-internal agreement marker) appended, and justify the antiquity of this root in Ket. Their bare forms, in line with the Ket verb base, would be *-âge and *-oje.

The featuring of prefix can also be seen in Ket, as Биляӄ. (Bílaq. «b³-l²-aq⁰», “It went sour, It rotted.”), for comparison. This exact same conjugation has a direct equivalence in the faux-attested Arin form, Arin *baroe (“It rotted.”), which if separated into its morphemes, yields *b⁴-a³-r²-oe⁰.)
