mara Grammatical information: f. ā Proto-Slavic meaning: `ghost, apparition'Page in Trubačev: XVII 204-207 \{1\}Church Slavic:Russian:mára, mará `apparition, mirage;(dial.) house-sprite, evil spirit' [f ā]Belorussian:mará, mára `dream, apparition, nightmare;(dial.) `witch, demon' [f ā]Ukrainian:mará `apparition, ghost, witch' [f ā]Slovak:Polish:mara `dream, illusion, ghost, (dial.) nightly spirit that attacks people and horses in their sleep' [f ā]Slovincian:Upper Sorbian:Bulgarian:Mára `name of a fairy-tale monster' [f ā]Indo-European reconstruction: meh₂-reh₂Certainty: +Page in Pokorny: 693Comments: There are basically two views on the origin of *mara. According to a hypothesis put forward by Franck (1904: 129) and advocated by a.o. Schuster-Šewc (885ff), *mara continues PIE *mōrā and differs from *mora only in having lengthened grade. The alternative etymology, which can at least be traced to Zubatý 1894, connects *mara with the root ma- < *meh₂- of majati, mamъ etc. Though it seems at a first glance unsatisfactory to separate *mara from *mora - in Polish, for instance, mara and mora are synonymous -, it is awkward that in most Slavic languages both apophonic variants would occur side by side. Perhaps we have to start from *mara `illusion, apparition' beside *mora `female demon that tortures people with nightmares', which later became confused. This scenario may also offer an explanation for the fact that the accentual paradigm of both words is so hard to determine. We would expect *màra (a) - in view of Hirt's law - beside *morà (b) or (c). Nevertheless we find forms like Ru. móra and mará (beside mára). I think that in this respect, too, we have to reckon with analogy. -

dročiti Grammatical information: v. Proto-Slavic meaning: `stimulate, irritate'Page in Trubačev: V 122-123Russian:dročít' `stroke, caress, feed, tease, irritate' [verb];dróčit' `stroke, caress, tease, irritate' [verb];dročít'sja `be obstinate, go mad (said of cattle, for instance)' [verb]Polish:droczyć `tease' [verb]Serbo-Croatian:drȍčiti `sting' [verb]Bulgarian:dróča `loaf, amuse oneself, booze' [verb]Proto-Balto-Slavic reconstruction: drok-Latvian:Indo-European reconstruction: d(ʰ)rok-Comments: It is difficult to link this Balto-Slavic etymon to fors with an Indo-European etymology. The Russian reflexive dročít'sja may also be compared with Latv. drakâtiês `rage, dance' -
3 màlъ
màlъ Grammatical information: adj. o Accent paradigm: a Proto-Slavic meaning: `small, little'Page in Trubačev: XVII 173-178Old Church Slavic:Russian:mályj `small, little' [adj o]Czech:malý `small, little' [adj o]Slovak:malý `small, little' [adj o]Polish:Serbo-Croatian:mȁo `small, little' [adj o];Čak. må̃lī (Vrgada) `small, little' [adj o];Čak. mȃli (Orbanići) `small, little' [adj o]Slovene:mȃli `small, little' [adj o]Bulgarian:Indo-European reconstruction: moh₁-lo-Page in Pokorny: 724Comments: The question is whether *màlъ can be linked to PIE *melH-, as has been advocated by Varbot, for instance (1972: 63). In view of the acute root vowel, I consider this unlikely: we would have to posit a lengthened grade root of which the acute intonation is analogical after forms with full or zero grade. Thus, I prefer to reconstruct a root *mH₁-, which in the etymon under discussion is followed by an l-suffix (cf. Vaillant IV, 545, where the root is assumed to be identical with the root of Ru. majat', which I reconstruct as *meH₂-). The Germanic forms would have s mobile and zero grade of the root. Notice that Pokorny classifies CS mělъkъ under 1. mel-, melǝ- `zermalmen, schlagen, mahlen etc.', while OCS malъ can be found under mēlo-, smēlo- `kleines Tier'.Other cognates:Gk. μη̃λον `small cattle, goat, sheep' [n] \{1\};OIr. míl `(small) `animal';Notes:\{1\} The Doric form also has η. -
4 màti
màti Grammatical information: f. r Accent paradigm: a Proto-Slavic meaning: `mother'Page in Trubačev: XVII 254-259Old Church Slavic:Russian:Old Russian:Old Czech:máti `mother' [f r], mateře [Gens]Old Polish:Serbo-Croatian:mȁti `mother' [f r], mȁterē [Gens];Čak. mȁti (Vrgada) `mother' [f r], mȁterē [Gens];Čak. mȁt (Novi, Orbanići) `mother' [f r], mȁteri [Gens]Slovene:máti `mother' [f r], mátere [Gens]Proto-Balto-Slavic reconstruction: máʔter-Lithuanian:mótė (OLith, dial.) `wife, mother' [f r] 1 \{1\}Latvian:mãte `mother' [f ē] \{2\}Old Prussian:Indo-European reconstruction: meh₂ter-IE meaning: motherCertainty: +Page in Pokorny: 700ffComments: The root stress in this word may be due to Hirt's law, cf. Skt. mātā́, but there is a distinct possibility that it is old, cf. Gk. μήτηρ.Other cognates:Skt. mātár- `mother' [f];OIr. máthir `mother' [f];Alb. mótrë `sister' [f]Notes:\{1\} The oldest form of the genitive is móteres, which occurs, for instance, in DP and in dialects. The most important Standard Lithuanian derivatives are móteris `wife, mother' and mótina `mother'. The form motė̃, which frequently occurs in the older scholarly literature, does not exist. \{2\} The accentuation mâte (Pokorny) is incorrect.
