nounmasculinea-stema field or tract of open land, especially land used for cultivation or grazingFrom Proto-Indo-European *h₂éǵros. Cognate with Mycenaean Greek 𐀀𐀒𐀫, Ancient Greek ἀγρός, Latin ager, Sanskrit अज्र, and Classical Armenian արտBeekes 2010: 16Kroonen 2013: 18Wodtko et al. 2008: 268. The noun is often connected with PIE root *h₂eǵ-, perhaps originally denoting open land onto which livestock were driven, but the semantic derivation is uncertain. An alternative analysis regards *h₂éǵros as a culture word of uncertain ultimate origin, possibly related to similar words for cultivated or open land in neighboring non-Indo-European languages Kroonen 2013: 18Wodtko et al. 2008: 268.
