Adjective [Albanian]

Forms: i urtë [canonical], të urta [feminine, plural]
Etymology: First attested in 1555. Uncertain, however, suggested to be: * a -të continuation of a Proto-Albanian *(w)ura- (“clever, experienced”), from Proto-Indo-European *(s)wr̥h₃ós (“insightful, observant”). * related to Old High German war (“aware, careful”), from Proto-Albanian *urta, from Proto-Indo-European *ur-tó-s, from *wer- (“to observe, perceive”) + *-tós; * from Proto-Indo-European *h₂er- (“to speak emphatically, loudly”), from Proto-Albanian *urta, presumably from Proto-Indo-European *h₂r̥-tó-s, from *h₂er- + *-tós; * from unattested *ur + -të (verbal adjective suffix), from Proto-Albanian *wara, from Proto-Indo-European *weh₁ros (“true”), though this is problematic as a *war- would lead to Alb. *var- (see valë); * related to Gothic 𐍅𐍂𐌹𐌺𐌰𐌽 (wrikan, “to persecute”), Latin urgeō (“to press, push”), presumably from Proto-Albanian *ur(k)ta, from Proto-Indo-European *urg-tó-s, from *wreg- (“to follow a trail”) + *-tós.
