| Language: | Celtic |
| Phonemic analysis: | uncertain |
| From Proto-Celtic: | *brist- 'fight' |
| Attestation: | priś |
Commentary
Lexically in OIr. bres 'fight, hit' < *bristā, also derived OIr. bresal, MBret. MCorn. bresel 'fight, war' < *bristila, and the secondary verb OIr. brissid 'beat, break', onomastically in the personal names OIr. bresal, arch. bresuall, OCorn. combresel < *(com)bristou̯alos (Irslinger 2002: 420, Stifter 2019: 190), Gaul. combrissa (CIL III 14359.21) and possibly L-74 (masc.) bristā (Hamp 1990: 183, DLG: 88 f., Delamarre 2007: 214). The etymology is not certain; the word is derived from the PIE root *bʰrei̯H- 'cut' (*bʰriH-st-) by IEW: 166 (cf. LEIA: B-85, Irslinger 2002: 420).
Hamp 1992: 218 also considers the possibility that Gaul. bristā belongs with MW brys 'quick; hurry' < *bʰris-ti- (cf. Schrijver 1990). Cf. also Zair 2012: 157.
