Well-attested Celtic prefix/preposition (OIr. ''air'', W ''ar''-/''er''-, Bret. ''ar'', {{bib|LEIA}}: A-37 f.). In Gaulish, ''are''- is amply attested as prefix in ethnic and place names: ''aremorici'' 'those before/by the sea' (thus in Endlicher's glossary: ''aremorici: antemarini. qui are: ante''), ''aresequani'' 'those by the Seine', ''arelate'' > ''Arles'' '(place) by the moor' (see {{bib|DLG}}: 52). Clear instances in personal names are rarer (e.g., ''aremagios''), but many opaque names in ''ar''° may contain the prefix (with syncopated ''e'') (see {{bib|KGP}}: 132–134, {{bib|Delamarre 2007}}: 211 et passim, {{bib|Wodtko 2013}}: 223 f.).

An attestation of ''are'' as preposition in Gaulish was suggested by Corthals, but judged unconvincing by Delamarre {{bib|DLG}}: 52.

Commentary

Well-attested Celtic prefix/preposition (OIr. air, W ar-/er-, Bret. ar, LEIA: A-37 f.). In Gaulish, are- is amply attested as prefix in ethnic and place names: aremorici 'those before/by the sea' (thus in Endlicher's glossary: aremorici: antemarini. qui are: ante), aresequani 'those by the Seine', arelate > Arles '(place) by the moor' (see DLG: 52). Clear instances in personal names are rarer (e.g., aremagios), but many opaque names in ar° may contain the prefix (with syncopated e) (see KGP: 132–134, Delamarre 2007: 211 et passim, Wodtko 2013: 223 f.). On the weakening of i to e in the auslauts of certain prepositions see VKG: I 40, 256, CCCG: 4, 68, Lejeune 1971: 119, n. 411, Lambert 1994: 41, Uhlich 2010: 145–149, and cf. ande-, ate-). An attestation of are as preposition in Gaulish was suggested by Corthals, but judged unconvincing by Delamarre DLG: 52. Cf. eri-.

In Cisalpine Celtic, are- is attested twice as part of the morpheme syntagma ande-are- in personal names (one Cisalpine Gaulish, the other of uncertain ascription).
