Etymology[edit]

Borrowed from Albanian Berat, from Ottoman Turkish برات (Berat), from Old Church Slavonic Бѣлградъ (Bělgradŭ, white city, white town), a name given to the city in the 9th century by its Bulgarian occupants, which in turn is a compound of бѣлъ (bělŭ, white) (from Proto-Slavic *bělъ) and градъ (gradŭ, city, town) (from Proto-Slavic *gordъ). Doublet of Belgrade, Beograd, and Belgorod.
