Altaic etymology :

Proto-Altaic: *bi̯ogo
Meaning: place, open place
Russian meaning: место, открытое место
Comments: The root is somewhat difficult to distinguish from *baja q. v. (and in Jpn., indeed, the two roots could have merged - with additional mixture with *p`āji 'part' q. v.). Jpn. *pia must be a contraction < *pǝja (*puja). altet-meaning,altet-rusmean,altet-mong,altet-tung,altet-jap,altet-reference,
