Proto-Eskimo: *tanǝ-ʁ-, *tanŋǝ
Meaning: to forbid, stranger
Russian meaning: запрещать, чужак
Proto-Yupik: *tanVʁ-, *tānŋǝ
Proto-Inupik: *tanǝ-ʁ-, *tanǝɣ
Comments: These forms represent two distinct borrowings from the PKCh root *tanŋъ. The latter is an areal borrowing from (presumably) pure Chukchee tanŋǝ 'foreigner, enemy'. The former is semantically closer to PKam *taN- 'to warn, to frighten' and has been adopted earlier, before Sirenik and Inupik languages lost contact with each other.
