<p>Prezados,<br>
<br>
Embora as poucas fontes existentes sobre as línguas da família Karirí<br>
geralmente careçam de informações lexicais sobre a fauna e a flora, é<br>
possível ainda 'garimpar' alguns exemplos interessantes. Um deles é a<br>
palavra para 'umbu', que ocorre pelo menos duas vezes no catecismo<br>
Dzubukuá de Bernardo de Nantes (1709), grafada sob as formas obbo e<br>
obo.<br>
<br>
A semelhança com a palavra usada no nosso português é óbvia. Na<br>
internet, uma informação bastante repetida é que a palavra brasileira<br>
provenha do Tupi Antigo; no artigo da Wikipédia<br>
(<a href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spondias_tuberosa">http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spondias_tuberosa</a>) dão, inclusive, uma<br>
etimologia (que me soa meio à la Teodoro Sampaio): "'y-mb-u', que<br>
significava 'árvore-que-dá-de-beber'".<br>
<br>
Embora haja vários empréstimos Tupí nas línguas Karirí (Ribeiro 2009),<br>
eu duvido que este seja o caso. É mais provável que, por razões<br>
ecológicas evidentes, o empréstimo tivesse percorrido a direção<br>
inversa. Povo sertanejo, os Karirí é que teriam familiaridade com a<br>
planta, emprestando a palavra para os falantes de Tupi; daí, então, a<br>
palavra teria chegado ao português. Se for este o caso, seria um<br>
exemplo raro de palavra Macro-Jê no léxico nacional.<br>
<br>
Então, como de costume, ficam aí algumas perguntas pros especialistas:<br>
a "etimologia" Tupí mencionada acima tem algum fundamento? uma<br>
adaptação obo > umbu em Tupí Antigo, que não tinha oclusivas sonoras<br>
simples, faz sentido?<br>
<br>
Abraços,<br>
<br>
