Proto-Mongolian: *(h)ergül
Meaning: sacrifice, donation
Russian meaning: жертвоприношение, пожертвование
Written Mongolian: ergül (L 326) Khalkha: örgöl
Buriat: ürgel
Comments: The word appears to be quite transparently derived from ergü-, örgü- 'to raise, lift up' (also 'to offer, present') q. v. sub *ṓŕi. We suspect, however, that this may be a case of secondary reanalysis: *(h)ergül would be a quite regular reflex of *(h)elgü-r or *(h)elgü-l = Turk. *ạlkɨĺ 'blessing'. Note that in Lessing's dictionary we find separate entries: ergül 'donation, sacrifice' vs. örgül 'elevation' (L 641). monget-prnum,monget-meaning,monget-rusmean,monget-wmo,monget-hal,monget-bur,monget-reference,

Number: 258
Root: bhlagh-men-
English meaning: priest
German meaning: `Zauberpriester'; ursprgl. wohl Neutrum `Opferhandlung'
Material: Air. brahmán- m. `Zauberpriester', bráhman- n. `Zauberspruch, Andacht'; messap. βλαμινι `Priester'; lat. flāmen, -inis m. `Opferpriester' (nicht altes *-ēn). Wegen der zahlreichen Übereinstimmungen in der religiösen Terminologie zwischen dem Italischen und Indoiranischen ist diese Gleichung der Erklärung von flāmen aus *bhlād-(s)men, angebl. `Opferhandlung' (zu got. blōtan `verehren', an. blōta, ags. blōtan, ahd. bluozan `opfern', an. blōt n. `Opfer' [-es-St., vgl. finn. luote `Zaubergesang' aus urgerm. *blōtes], ahd. bluostar n. ds., usw.), vorzuziehen. Vgl. auch Dumézil REtIE. 1, 377, der noch arm. baɫjal `streben nach' vergleicht.
