Comments: EDT 955, VEWT 208, ЭСТЯ 4, 223-224. Turk. > Mong. jor- (Щербак 1997, 125). The root should be distinguished from *jȫr- 'to untie, release' (Yak. süör-, OT jör-) - the latter is different both phonetically and semantically, although it can, through contamination, also attain the meaning 'to interpret' (thus in MK and OUygh.).
