remy Grammatical information: m. n Proto-Slavic meaning: `strap, belt'Old Church Slavic:Russian:remén' `strap, belt' [m jo], remnjá [Gens]Czech:řemen `strap, belt' [m o/jo]Slovak:remeň `strap, belt' [m jo]Polish:rzemień `strap, belt' [m jo];Serbo-Croatian:rȅmēn `strap, belt' [m o], rȅmena [Gens];rèmik (Herc.) `strap, belt' [m o];Čak. rȅmik (Orbanići) `strap (of a whip)' [m o]Slovene:rémen `strap, belt' [m o], remę́na [Gens]Comments: Attempts have been made to connect * remy with -> *arьmъ/o, but this meets with formal difficulties. Apart from the fact that in South Slavic there are no forms pointing to *rě- may be consider a counter-argument (but cf. OCS retь). More importantly, arьmъ/o is usually derived from PIE h₂er-, which seems incompatible with * remy. On the other hand, the relationship with MHG rieme m. `strap, belt', the etymology of which is unknown, is also unclear.
