[gothic-l] Eruli: The IE Etymology VII

[Bertil Haggman]

"2) A supposed etymological connection with Olc. jara 'battle'
also <*er- by breaking; OHG ernust, OE eornust (eo<e by OE
breaking) 'seriousness, battle'; Grk. eris, 'strife'. etc. (According
to Noreen, the connection with jara was first made by Nordenstreng.
This connection has been accepted tentatively by almost all
etymological dictionaries...though many of the words involved
remain problematic and none of them has an -l- suffix. I will return
to this etymology below."
