Talk:River Adur

Etymology
The word Adur is believed to derive from the Celtic (Welsh) word for water, dwyr - no problem about it. I just want to point to Illyrian word adur meaning "water" - per etymology "guilty" for the name of the Adriatic Sea. It seems that both dwyr and adur came from an older PIE word related to some hydrographical term, there are many hydrographical related toponyms with -adr- root in different IE languages in all Mediterranean region and wider.
