Etymology

edit

Uncertain. Possibilities include:

  1. Borrowed from Vulgar Latin *utrīnum, a derivation from uter (leathern bottle).[1][2]
  2. A metathesised derivation from South Slavic, ultimately from Proto-Slavic *rъtъ (beak; mouth), whence also Romanian rât (snout).[1]
  3. A derivation from Proto-Indo-European *ter- (tender, young), hence akin to tru (brain).[3]

Pronunciation

edit

Noun
