Proto-Indo-European[edit]
Etymology[edit]
According to some, *wiHrós is derived from the verb *weyh₁- (“to hunt”) (cf. Sanskrit वेति (véti), Lithuanian výti etc.), which would render the reconstruction as *wih₁rós, with *h₁ at the place of otherwise unreconstructable laryngeal *H, and the original meaning of "hunter".

Reconstruction notes[edit]
Germanic, Celtic, and Italic forms point to a short *i, with loss of the root laryngeal, which is reconstructed on the basis of Sanskrit and Lithuanian (Balto-Slavic acute, retracted to the root vowel by Hirt's law) forms.
