Abstract

Abstract The words denoting the most ancient European grain legumes, such as ‘pea’, ‘lentil’ or ‘faba bean’, in both extinct and living Baltic languages confirm that these crops were cultivated among the ancestors of the modern Lithuanians and Latvians. The words denoting ‘pea’, such as Lithuanian žirnis and Latvian zirņi, are derived from the Proto-Baltic *žir̂n-ia- and the Proto-Indo-European *g'er[a]n-, denoting grain. The Proto-Indo-European root denoting ‘lentil’, *lent-, gave the Proto-Baltic *leñšia- and the modern Lithuanian lęšis and the Latvian lēca. The linguistic evidence confirms that the Old Balts transferred both grain legume crops and their names to their Finno-Ugric neighbours.

关于波罗的海语言中一些最古老的欧洲谷物豆类作物的单词注释
在已灭绝的和现存的波罗的海语言中,表示最古老的欧洲谷物豆类的单词,如“pea”、“lentil”或“faba bean”,证实了这些作物是在现代立陶宛人和拉脱维亚人的祖先中种植的。表示“豌豆”的单词,如立陶宛语žirnis和拉脱维亚语zirņi,来源于原波罗的语*žir n-ia-和原印欧语*g'er[a]n-,表示谷物。原始印欧语根表示“扁豆”,*lent-,产生了原始波罗的语*leñšia-和现代立陶宛语lęšis和拉脱维亚语lēca。语言学证据证实,古波罗的海人将豆类作物及其名称传给了他们的芬兰-乌戈尔邻居。
