Etymology: From Proto-Indo-European *peri (“in crossing, in passing”), locative singular of *per- (“before, in front”). Cognates include Sanskrit परि (pári), Latin per, Lithuanian per, English for, and Albanian për. The genitive is from the PIE ablative of cause. The dative is from the locative. The accusative is like παρά (pará).
