## Welsh
### Etymology

From Middle Welsh eur, from Proto-Brythonic *ėür, from Vulgar Latin from Latin aureus (“golden”, adjective). The vowel au (/aɨ̯/) must have undergone internal i-affection, showing that this word is derived from the adjective aureus, not the noun aurum, which gave the now archaic synonym awr (not to be confused with awr (“hour”) from hōra).

### Pronunciation

* (North Wales) IPA: /aɨ̯r/
* (South Wales) IPA: /ai̯r/

### Noun

aur m (usually uncountable, plural eurau)

* gold (in colour)
* (figurative) golden

#### Related terms
