Z etymologii łemkowskich. Cz. I
Lemko etymologies. Part I

Summary/Abstract: Research into the language of Lemkos has a long history, and many works have already been published: dictionaries, dictionaries of single villages, atlases, and linguistic descriptions, inlcuding etymological ones, but focusing primarily on the study of foreign influence on the Lemko vocabulary. However, an etymological dictionary is still missing, and its creation is an urgent need. This paper presents the preliminary results of the authors’ efforts in the area of Lemko etymology. Analysed here are words which have not as yet been looked into or which have been considered unclear, and also those cases where the newest etymological findings can provide a substantial addendum or correction of previous etymological attempts. This is the first part of a series of papers devoted to Lemko etymology where we present words beginning with the letters Б–В: банюр, баткати, беба, белей, біхреса, блиндати, бозуля, бортак, бундз, бурко, бурликати, валал, валушний, вантолити, верый, вірґ´ати, высюдати, выхырений, выхраяти ся, востожити.
