Talk:kert

I personally think that kert is not connected to kerul, but it is connected to Slavonic root Gród/Ogród (Polish) Hrad (Czech and Slovak) zahrada, ohrada and so on. Those roots mean garden in Slavonic languages.

Wanderwort
, this has a long history of being considered a Wanderwort related to or a borrowing from the Alanic ancestor of that Ossetian word. Is the native Hungarian explanation any good? Vahag (talk) 08:14, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Maybe possible, but would require an assumption of unevidenced semantic change (-t normally forms participles so this would be 'encircled' > 'yard' > 'garden'). The older FU studies tic of calling a word "native" without a secure etymology is certainly unwarranted at least. --Tropylium (talk) 15:22, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I'll use a more careful language then. Vahag (talk) 18:37, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
