COMMENTS: This is etymologically distinct from other Bsq words for 'strawberry' (see *maguli / *malugi). There has however clearly been some blending of reflexes of *maguli / *malugi with those of *mar̄uhi / *mahur̄i. Latin marrubiu 'horehound' (Trask 1997: 309: quite a different plant) is probably a chance resemblance. Words for 'mulberry, blackberry' seem to contain *mar̄- (= PEC *(H)mer(ʔ)V) + a mysterious morph *-SuS(t)a - related to *śaśi 'thorn, bramble'?
