Celabrian (Celabrian: girṭeʒ [ˈɡiɾtʼɛd͡z]) is an Indo-European language.
Introduction
Etymology
The name Celabrian comes from the tribal name Celabri (Greek: Κελαβροί) < Proto-Celabrian kelabʰras "warrior" (Modern Celabrian č̣ałăvr [ˈt͡ʃʼaɫəvɾ]) < kelas "spear" (< PIE *gʷelH- "to throw, pierce"; Modern Celabrian č̣ał [t͡ʃʼaɫ] "weapon") + -bʰras "bearer" (< PIE *bʰer- "to bear, carry").
The endonym girṭeʒ comes from gir "Celabrian" (< PIE *wiHrós "man, warrior") + ṭeʒ "language" (< PIE *dn̥ǵʰwéh₂s "tongue"). The formal language is known as bonṭeʒ [ˈbontʼɛd͡z], from bon "clear, eloquent" (< PIE *bʰeh₂- "to shine; to speak"). The classical language is known as akrăṭeʒ [ˈakʰɾətʼɛd͡z] (Classical Celabrian: akʰra tanci [ˈakʰɾa ˈtant͡si]), from akr "precise" (< PIE *h₂ḱrós "sharp"). The colloquial language is known as łødṭeʒ [ˈɫœtʼːɛd͡z], from łød "masses, common folk" (< PIE *h₁léwdʰis "people").
