Altaic etymology :
Search within this database
Proto-Altaic: *pisV ( ~ p`-, -i̯a-)
Meaning: seed, grain
Russian meaning: семя, зерно
Comments: EAS 54, 82, SKE 231, Цинциус 1984, 40, Lee 1958, 110, АПиПЯЯ 296. A Tung.-Kor. isogloss. Since the TM forms meaning "millet" go back to the same root, the second of Ramstedt's etymologies (SKE 214, comparison with Kor. phi 'millet') should be rejected. In Kor. cf. also psắr '(fine) rice' (see Lee 1958, 109). altet-prnum,altet-meaning,altet-rusmean,altet-tung,altet-kor,altet-reference,

Proto-Tungus-Manchu: *pise-
Meaning: 1 seed, offspring; kin 2 millet
Russian meaning: 1 семя, приплод; племя 2 просо
Even: hese-n 1 (Okh.)
Literary Manchu: fise-n 1, fisi-ke 2
Ulcha: pikse 2
Nanai: pikse, Kur-Urm. fisxe 2
Comments: See ТМС 2, 38 (where the Nan. and Ul. forms are qualified as borrowed from Manchu, which is hardly justified; Oroch pikse is < Ul.), 300, 371. One should probably unite the Manchu stems 'breed, offspring' and 'millet' (*'seed'). The -e-vowel in Even is not quite clear. tunget-prnum,tunget-meaning,tunget-rusmean,tunget-evn,tunget-man,tunget-ulc,tunget-nan,tunget-reference,
