Bulgaria (n.)
Medieval Latin, from Bulgari "Bulgarians," perhaps literally "the men from the Bolg," the River Volga, upon whose banks they lived until 6c. But the people's name for themselves in Old Bulgarian was Blugarinu, according to OED, which suggests a different origin. In other sources [e.g. Room], the name is said to be ultimately from Turkic bulga "mixed", in reference to the nature of this people of Turko-Finnish extraction but Slavic language.
Jei jau Volga, tai vulgarai.
The etymology of the name Bulgar is not fully understood; there are claims that it derived from the Turkic verb bulğa ("to mix", "shake, "stir") and its derivative bulgak ("revolt", "disorder") by some authorities.
Atila, mūsiškiai, Romos imperijos griuvimas, po kurio tautų arenoj ir pasirodė slavai - tikrai nemenkas "revolt", "disorder".
Ir tikrai tada bulga-"mixed" liaudis pasirodė.
Gal ir pasibastė toji laisvėn ištrūkusi bulga.
O po pusantro šimtmečio, 800 AD, persigalvojo ir atėjo ten, kur ligi šiol tebegyvena:
Gintaro Kelio pradžioj gyvena.
Mat juos turkai, tuos tiurkus!
O vat bulgarai vulgarai....
Tiesiog Vasilijaus ir Bazilijaus istorija!
Graikiška B ir lotyniška V.
vulgar (adj.)
late 14c., "common, ordinary," from Latin vulgaris "of or pertaining to the common people, common, vulgar," from vulgus "the common people, multitude, crowd, throng," from PIE root *wel- "to crowd, throng" (cf. Sanskrit vargah "division, group," Greek eilein "to press, throng," Middle Breton gwal'ch "abundance," Welsh gwala "sufficiency, enough"). Meaning "coarse, low, ill-bred" is first recorded 1640s, probably from earlier use (with reference to people) with meaning "belonging to the ordinary class" (1530).
vulgarity (n.)
1570s, "the common people," from Late Latin vulgaritas "the multitude," from vulgaris (see vulgar).
Jei tikrai iš vergijos po Romos griuvimo ištrūko, tai tikrai - ne aukštuomenė.
Vulgar Bulgar.
