If it is not a variant of the Vernerian law of a supposed tribe *ghor-to-, the Germanic word could return to *ghordho-, which would correspond to the Slavic *gordÅ (Old Church Slavic gradÅ « city, garden, courtyard », Russian górod « city », Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian grâd) and Lithuanian garídas « feather, fold »). The words Slavic and Baltic were taken alternately as borrowings from Germanic. However, this explanation would not cover the Albanian gardh « fence, padded partition » or, more importantly, the Sanskrit gá¹hÁá ̧¥ « house » if it goes back to *ghrì¥dhos, a zero-degree derivative. The Germanic etymon has traditionally been used with a hypothetical verbal basis *Çμher- « to grasp, to enclose » in Sanskrit harati « (he/he) takes, fetche, door », yearur « have been recovered », although the Albanian, Baltoslav and Sanskrit words do not show a palatavelary. However, a palatvelary is found in a group of semantically related words: Lithuanian Å3/4Árdas « frame for drying grain, flax or pease, cattle hedge », Å3/4aÍrdis « fenced pasture », Old Prussian Sardinian « fence », regional Russian zoród, zaród « pile of hay or sheaves of grain, enclosed around a pile ». Also associated with Germanic *garÄa- is a strong verb *gerÄan- hypothetically highlighted by the Gothic *-gairdan (attested only as past participle bigaurdans, translated into Greek perizÅsámenos « to gird oneself ») and a weak verb *gurdjan- with zero degrees âsee belt entry 1, belt entry 1, belt entry 1.
