yes it is. The word is "gharghara". It enterd Romanian too where the
words is "gargarã". As far I remember ( correct me please if I am wrong)
even in Bulgarian the last wovel is a schwa.
The meaning in Rom. Lang is to gargle, gargle.The verb is "gargarisi"
( NeoGreek "ghargharizo")
It entered Albanian too "gargare" and the verb is "gargarit".
