#Ossetian word of the day! #Iron цырт cɨrt, #Digoron цирт cirt ‘tombstone’ (see next tweet for map with some regional pronunciation in IPA) The Alanic ancestor to this word is attested as τζηρθ- */ȶ͡ʃʰɪrθ]-/ in a now-lost tombstone on the Zelenchuk river in Kabardino-Balkaria.

In Ossetian culture, a ‘tsyrt’(tsyrtdzævæn) is a traditional tombstone or grave marker. This ancient term traces back to the Alans, the ancestors of modern Ossetians, and reflects Ossetian traditions, spirituality, and reverence for the past.

A lot of Christian(ity-adjacent) terminology in #Ossetic is borrowed from #Georgian. The word for ‘fast’ is one of them. #Iron мархо marxo मार्‌ख़ो #Digoron мархуӕ marxwæ मार्‌ख़्व The verb ‘to fast’ is usually framed as мархо дарын | мархуӕ дарун “to fast-hold”.

Two of the three #Digoron words here — гъог /ʁoɡ/ ‘cow’, гал /ɡɑ̈ɫ/ ‘bull’, уӕс /wɜs/ ‘calf’ — have attested cognates in #Jász: ⟨ɡal⟩ glossed “bōs” ⟨vas⟩ glossed “bidellu” (= “vitulus”?) For “vacca”, we find ⟨doceɡa⟩, for which cf. доцгӕ гъог /dot͡sʰɡɜ ʁoɡ/ ‘milking cow’.

Im westlichen Dialekt (#Digoron) des #Ossetischen ist ein #Wildschwein als „tuskʼæ“ bekannt. Dies ist wahrscheinlich ein germanisches (anglofriesisches??) Wort. Englisch tusk „Stoßzahn, Hauer“ Syltfriesisch „Stoßzahn, Hauer“ Saterfriesisch Tusk „Zahn“ Westerfriesisch tosk „Zahn“

An old Scythian loanword in Proto-Germanic is believed to be *paþaz ‘path’, reflexed in West Germanic languages, e.g., English path, Sylt Frisian Pad, Dutch pad, Low Saxon Padd, High German Pfad etc. A loan in the opposite direction might be #Digoron тускъӕ tuskʼæ ‘wild boar’.

Funny how the Persian word for "eye" (چشم) has become an affirmative interjection meaning "alright, okay". I wonder how it is that only the interjection čašm retains the historical /a/ vowel in Iran, whereas as a word for "eye" in Iranian speech it's češm?

Word-initial *i-deletion in Iron has some interesting dialectological consequences in #Ossetic. 1. The unstressed anaphoric particle /i/ (cf. @tsoriemi’s soon-to-be-out dissertation) survives in #Digoron with no #Iron analog.
