ඉංග්‍රීසි bear

From මධ්‍යකාලීන ඉංග්‍රීසි bere, from පුරාතන ඉංග්‍රීසි bera, from ප්‍රොටෝ-බටහිර ජර්මානු *berō, from ප්‍රොටෝ-ජර්මානු *berô (“bear”), from ප්‍රොටෝ-ඉන්දු-යුරෝපීය *bʰerH- (“brown”).

Cognate with North Frisian beer (“bear”), Saterland Frisian Boar, Boare (“bear”), West Frisian bear (“bear”), Cimbrian and Mòcheno per (“bear”), ඕලන්ද beer (“bear”), ජර්මානු Bär (“bear”), German Low German Boor (“bear”), Limburgish baer, Béër (“bear”), Luxembourgish Bier (“bear”), Vilamovian baor, bar (“bear”), West Flemish beir (“bear”), යිඩිශ් בער (ber, “bear”), ඩෙන්මාර්ක, Faroese, and Norwegian Bokmål bjørn (“bear”), අයිස්ලන්ත and ස්වීඩන් björn (“bear”), Norwegian Nynorsk bjøinn, bjønn, bjørn (“bear”), Gothic *𐌱𐌰𐌹𐍂𐌰 (*baira, “bear”); also ලතින් fiber (“beaver”), ග්‍රීක φρύνος (frýnos, “toad”), Latvian bērs (“bay, brown”), Lithuanian bėras (“bay, reddish brown”), බෙලරුසියානු бабёр (babjór, “beaver”), බල්ගේරියානු бобър (bobǎr, “beaver”), චෙක් bobr (“beaver”), මැසඩෝනියානු дабар (dabar, “beaver”), පෝලන්ත bober, bóbr (“beaver”) රුසියානු бобёр (bobjór), бобр (bobr, “beaver”), සර්බෝ-ක්‍රොඒෂියානු да̀бар, dàbar (“beaver”), Slovak bobor (“beaver”), Slovene bober (“beaver”), යුක්‍රේනියානු бобе́р (bobér, “beaver”), ආමේනියානු բորենի (boreni, “hyena”), Avestan 𐬠𐬀𐬡𐬭𐬀 (baβra, “beaver”), Northern Kurdish bor (“grey”), Ossetian бур (bur, “yellow”), පර්සියානු (bur, “blonde, fair; bay, reddish brown; brown”), Yaghnobi вур (vur, “brown”), සංස්කෘත बभ्रु (babhru, “ichneumon, mongoose”).

This is generally taken to be from ප්‍රොටෝ-ඉන්දු-යුරෝපීය *bʰerH- (“shining, brown”) (compare Tocharian A parno, Tocharian B perne (“radiant, luminous”), Lithuanian bė́ras (“brown”)), related to brown, bruin, and beaver.

On this theory, the Germanic languages replaced the older name of the bear, *h₂ŕ̥tḱos, with the epithet "brown one", presumably due to taboo avoidance; compare රුසියානු медве́дь (medvédʹ, “bear”, literally “honey-eater”).

However, Ringe (2006:106)^[1] doubts the existence of a root *bʰer- meaning "brown" ("an actual PIE word of [the requisite] shape and meaning is not recoverable") and suggests that a derivation from ප්‍රොටෝ-ඉන්දු-යුරෝපීය *ǵʰwer- (“wild animal”) "should therefore perhaps be preferred", implying a Germanic merger of *ǵʰw and *gʷʰ (*gʷʰ may sometimes result in Germanic *b, perhaps e.g. in *bidjaną, but it also seems to have given the g in gun and the w in warm).

භාවිත සටහන්

The past participle of bear is usually borne:
- He could not have borne that load.
- She had borne five children.
- This is not to be borne!
However, when bear is used in the passive voice to mean "to be given birth to" literally or figuratively (e.g. be created, be the result of), the form used is born:
- She was born on May 3.
- Racism is usually born out of a real or feared loss of power to a minority or a real or feared decrease in relative prosperity compared to that of the minority.
- Born three years earlier, he was the eldest of his siblings.
- "The idea to create [the Blue Ridge Parkway] was born in the travail of the Great Depression […] ." (Tim Pegram, The Blue Ridge Parkway by Foot: A Park Ranger's Memoir, →ISBN, 2007, page 1)
Both spellings have been used in the construction born(e) into the world/family and born(e) of or to someone (as a child). The borne spellings are more frequent in older and religious writings.
- He was born(e) to Mr. Smith.
- She was born(e) into the most powerful family in the city.
- "[M]y father was borne to a Swedish mother and a Norwegian father, both devout Lutherans." (David Ross, Good Morning Corfu: Living Abroad Against All Odds, →ISBN, 2009)
In some colloquial speech, beared can be found for both the simple past and the past participle, although it is usually considered nonstandard and avoided in writing. Similarly, bore may be extended to the past participle; the same provisos apply for this form.
