==Name== | |||
Hirathic's English name derives from the [[wiktionary:autoglossonym|autoglottonym]] ''hirathis''~''khirathis'' which is believed to be a derivation of PIE *gʰreH- 'to grow' with a suffix *-tis 'abstract', thus meaning 'that which is grown', 'that which is cultivated', and by extension 'that which is refined'. Related is the auto-ethnonym ''hirathēi'' 'the high ones'. | |||
Other names for the language include ''hirathōn'' 'of the high ones', ''vepos'' 'speech', a combination of both (as seen in the Smyrna cave inscription '''ϜΕΠΟΣΧΙ(Ρ)ΑΘ(Ω)Ν'''), ''vepos nim'' 'our speech'. | |||
