*hurnungaz
Runic: ᚺᚢᚱᚾᚢᚾᚷᚨᛉ Pronunciation: /ˈxur.nuŋ.ɡɑz/noun · masculine · a-stem
Meanings
bastard
Etymology
Perhaps cognate with Ancient Greek κύρνος (kúrnos) (kúrnos, ‘bastard’) and Sanskrit कुण्ड (kuṇḍa) (kuṇḍa, ‘adulterine, bastard’) for Proto-Indo-European *kurn- (‘bastard’), but this root shape is problematic. Either an n-stem from a root *kwer- (zero-grade *kur-) or a post-PIE wanderwort.
