prier

/ˈprjer/

Where it comes from

Inherited from Latin (mensis) Aprīlis. Probably via an early (unattested) *prire; which has either undergone metathesis or more likely by a merging of the aforementioned *prire and the archaic prie (pronounced /'pri͜e/). For the sound change of the latter compare the dialectal fărină with standard făină.

Cognate to Aromanian aprir, prir, prilj, Albanian prill. Doublet of aprilie.

noun

masculine, uncountable April (fourth month of the Gregorian calendar)
Similar: aprilie

In English
