Telling the truth the greek word Purrhus(Πυῤῥ-us) is much closer to PURE than Albanian word BURR(us)=man, strong.

As for you Orphic Hymn, worthless and desperate.

According to these gentelmens we have PURELY and TOO Helenic.
If we trust them and we surely do Ζωνε=Zeus=zone=belt

It must be a colorfull zone or belt, a blonde zone, a reddish zone like the hairs of Pyrrhus the South-Epirotan.
Yes we have a blonde Zeus according the accurate modern greek translation.
CONGRATULATION.

That's some nice etymological musings there helios.

Much closer is an understatement, since you seem inable to comprehend that your quote of Charlton T. Lewis, Charles Short "A Latin Dictionary's entry on the letter Y is refering to words BORROWED FROM HELLENIC, hence:

a Greek letter introduced at a late period for words borrowed from the Greek, the place of the Greek U

but in either way what you should have quoted was the entry related to the letter B (hence Burrus).. and there you'd read:

As in the middle, so at the beginning of words, b might take the place of another labial, e. g. buxis for pyxis, balaena for phalaina, carbatina for carpatina, publicus from poplicus, ambo for ampho; as even Enn. wrote Burrus and Bruges for Pyrrhus and Phryges; Naev., Balantium for Palatium (v. the latter words, and cf. Fest. p. 26).

with a simple glance at the words mentioned above:

buxis - pyxis = box-wood
balena - phalaina = whale
carbatina - carpatina = leather shoe
ambo - ampho = both


we find that the letter change does NOT alter the loaned word's meaning, hence why the entry related to Y, mentions BORROWED FROM HELLENIC. So your underlining of the sentence related to the use of Burrus by Romans, who we again should note did not alter the name's meaning nor attempt to apply some rediculous etymology like "man/strong" which Albanian nationalists have, simply do not support the drivel you've been flooding the thread with.

As for you Orphic Hymn, worthless and desperate.

Child you entertain the rest of the members with your stupidity and thats really the only reason you're still posting. So forget about trying to critisize others and continue doing the only thing you're good at.. being the court-jester you are and provide us with endless laughs.

Sorry,Andrew,but your etymology lacks of historical accuracy and scientific documentation.According to those historians who studied Pyrros' nutritial behaviour,his favorite meal wasn't poures but burek.

So,it's clearly that the name Pyrros derives from burek and i hope that the Turks won't claim Pyrros as they do with burek.

Or Πύρρος derives from "μπύρα" ??

If we accept this etymology,we can easily conclude this:
Although the beer is considered as the national drink of Germans,the archeologists agree that the first beer was made in ancient Egypt.
Egypt=Roseta stone=Protoslavic language=Pyrros was an ancient <Makedonski> and beer has <Makedonski> origin and etymology.
Pures,if i'm not wrong is a French invention.Burek is considered as Turkish,so i think we should stop it right now,otherwise we'll provoke an international Greco-Albano-Turko-Egypto-French-German-Scopian conflict with unpredictable results.

You are not very familiar with byrek kosta,because that's not Byrek but bakllava.
