boroná `harrow' [f ā], bóronu [Accs]

brona `harrow' [f ā] \{1\}

brána `harrow' [f ā];

braná (dial.) `harrow' [f ā]

Comments: According to the ESSJa, *borna `harrow' and *borna `guarded entrance, barrier' belong to one and the same root. Though this may be correct, I prefer to leave it an open question whether these words may be identified. In my opinion, this is tantamount to leaving the question whether PSl. *borti, Lat. ferīre and OIc. berja are cognate with Gk. φαρόωσι, Lat. forāre and OIc. bora unanswered.

Gk. φαρόωσι `plough' [3pl];

Lat. forāre `perforate' [verb];

OIc bora `perforate, drill' [verb];

OHG borōn `perforate, drill' [verb] \{2\}

\{1\} We find attestations of bróna ( bruna) from the 16th century onwards (Sɫawski SP I: 324).
