Reconstructed
edit- Oscan urust is usually explained as derived via a reduplicated perfect which was weak-suppletively attached to this 1st-conjugation verb.[2]
- Faliscan 𐌖𐌓𐌀𐌕𐌄 (urate) is connected here by Pisani; the identification as a simple imperative of this denominative verb is due to Bakkum.[3]
- Connecting Latin ōrō to here is quite popular nowadays, accepted by Schrijver,[4] Kümmel,[2] Rix and Zair;[1] but De Vaan rejects this in favour of a derivation from ōs (“mouth”) (which cannot yield the Oscan form since Oscan did not undergo rhotacism).[5]
