умарь

Erzya

Etymology

Possibly consists of two components: the first component у- (u-), which may come from the same [Finno-Volgaic] root as Finnish omena, Estonian õun, and the second component марь (maŕ, berry).[1]

Alternatively, the whole word inherited from Proto-Finno-Permic [Finno-Volgaic] *omena ~ *omɜrɜ (apple). Compare Livonian umārz.
