    Material: A. ablaut bheru- (bheru-), bhrū̆ -: O.Ind. bhurváṇi-ḥ “restless, wild”, bhurván- “uncontrollable movement of water”. Arm. bark ‘sharp, sour, cruel, savage” (barkanam “ I get angry “), which is very much ambiguous, it is constructed here from Dumé zil BAL.-SLAV. 40, 52 as *bhr̥-u̯-, likewise berkrim “ I am glad “ as *bher-u̯-; very doubtful! Gk. φαρυμός τολμηρός, θρασύς Hes. (*bher-u-) and φορυτός “mixture, rubbish, chaff, crap, muck”, φορύ̄νω, φορύσσω “knead, jumble, mingle, sully, besmirch”, probably also φρυ-άσσομαι “ gestures, behaves impatiently (esp. from wild horses); be rollicking, wanton “ common Gk.-Illyr. -ks- > -ss- phonetic mutatIon.

Transf. anger, passion “ (: Thrac. βρῦτος, βρῦτον, βροῦτος “ a kind of barley beer “; from Thrac. *brūti̯ ü (Gk. βρύτια), derives Illyr. brīsa ‘skins of pressed grapes”, Proto-extension Alb. bërsí ds., from which Serb. bersa, bîrsa, bîrza “ mould on the wine”; Lat. brīsa from dem Venet. or Messap.).

    Note: Not only Alb. is the direct descendant of Illyr. but Albans in Alba Longa brought their beer formula from Illyricum (Albanoi Illyr. TN) to Italy. Slavic languages borrowed their cognates from Illyr. M.Ir. berbaim “cook, simmer, seethe”, Welsh berwi, Bret. birvi ‘simmer, seethe, boil”, bero, berv “cooked, boiled”, Gaul. GN Borvo (from spa, mineral spring), compare with other suffix Bormō above S. 133; perhaps also Fr. bourbe ‘slime, mud” from Gaul. *borvü “mineral water”; O.Ir. bruth “blaze, glow, fury”, M.Ir. bruith “cook”, enbruithe “broth, meat broth” (to en- “water”, see under pen-2), O.Welsh brut “ courage, spirit, vivacity; also pride, arrogance “, Welsh brwd “hot” (cymmrwd “mortar” from *kom-bru-to-, compare M.Ir. combruith ‘simmer, seethe, boil”), brydio ‘seethe, froth”, O.Corn. bredion “dealer, broker” (Umlaut), O.Bret. brot “ jealousy “, Bret. broud “hot, fermenting”.

(*bruth) burth “Cyclamen europaeum (burning of donkey’s mouth)” where -th is a diminutive Alb. ending.

    Note: Alb. shows that Root bh(e)reu- : bh(e)rū̆ - : “to boil, to be wild” is an extended Root bher-2 : “to boil, swell; to get high” (see below) while the latter root evolved from Root bher-1 : “to bear, carry”.
