Row

...rou(OE)=use oars,=rowan(OE/xiv)=reow(OE/xii)=r/teotl(N)=roa(ONorse)=eretmon(GK)=er/etmon(reversal Letra)=temo(N/root)=rower(E)=remus(Latin)=remo(sp)=r/temo(Nauatl/root)=descend, lower, rebajar(sp)=dock, e.g., totem(E)=to(our descent)temo=to temo(N),=ráme(OIrish), e.g., nitic non-temo(N)=reflect, i.e., rowing is good meditation as one strokes over the chop or calm of oneself, the sea being one's mirror. .....irti(Lith)=row,=irklas(Lith)=(au)i(r)c/klas(Letra)=auictli(N/root)=water shovel/oar(E)=aritá/arítras (Sanskrit)=rower/oar(E). .....whether Lithuania/the Baltic has an earlier sea tradition than Western Europe, the Norse or Greek, who use the Nauatl verb, temo(N) for both row and oar, while the Lith/Lett/Estonian comes out of India, using the Nauatl word for oar, auictli(N), is difficult to say. it depends where one believes the techniques for Sea Age started, e.g., sculls(E)=the plural is correct as it refers to the 2 warped oars propelling the hull,=s/culls(Letra)=coloa(N)=curls/coils. then there's the Old Teuton for a young rower of unwarped oar, uiquilia(N)=the reverential of, uica(N)=to wick/vicker,=quiller(OTeut). .....the techniques may have developed severally in both places, perhaps earlier in the Orient, but when it came to the naming of terms, Euro-Nauatl had the edge, as nouns formed late, e.g., uic(N/adv.)=uica(N/v.) =uiquilia(N/rev.verb)=quiller(OTeut), but, uictli/auictli(N)=shovel/oar, yet, uica(N/verb)=wick, and for Europe, the Med., and the Norse, temo(N/verb)=remus(Latin)=remo(sp)=oar. .....there are 2 different stages of mind at work here. the earlier appears to be uic(N/adverb))/wicked, linked to early agriculture when antlers/tlantli(N)=tooth were used as shovels to build Stonehenge at 4K BCE, while the later, metaphoric is r/temo(N/verb), e.g., nitic non-temo(N)=I reflect. from shovel to oar.
