Etymology
From the stem vowel *-ā/ə- + xcl ine-pro *bʰoréh₂ *-bʰoreh₂, from ine-pro *bʰer-, whence xcl բերեմ. Later the stem vowel was interpreted as the interfix xcl -ա- and the suffix was then applied to other stems.
In wholly-borrowed Iranian compounds often replaces xpr -𐭁𐭓 -βar, pal -𐫇𐫡 -war -bearer from ine-pro *bʰóros due to similarity, e.g. in xcl դատաւոր judge bearing judgment, xcl թագաւոր, xcl բարաւոր, xcl գանձաւոր.
