From Proto-Balto-Slavic *baurjā, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bʰer- (“to boil”).^[1] Cognates include Latvian baũr̨uôt, Latin furō, Old Norse byrr, Sanskrit भुरति (bhurati).

If Van Wijk's law holds, the ja-endings were lengthened to ā, except for for the endings for Gsg., Asg., and NApl., which were nasal vowels at the time of Van Wijk's law.^[2]
