Re: [tied] Re: Celtic *seibr-

Hello

do you know "the Subure" ?

In Heroic fantaysy cartoons and books Subure are woman demons

I think "Subure" come from "Suburra = Old district of ill repute in Old Roma in wich many prostitues officiated

may be "Suburra" come from Latin Suburo = to burn slowly

the subure woman "fire off" man in the figurative sens ?

I speak too about the Celtic Tribe = the Insubri = In-subri

may be from odl name of north Italy = The SEPRIUM/SUBRIUM (?)

The Insubri = people inside the Subrium ?

Subrium < for river name ?

Old Irish siabar "magic; supernatural being" and Welsh *hwyfar (it's not attested on its own - only in the name Gwenhwyfar) come from Proto-Celtic *seibarV-, not *seibro- (pedantic, I know). The root is supposed to be PIE *sei- "to bind" (via a suffixed byform *sei-bh-).
