Ürü

Wether

An ürü (“URU”) is a castrated sheep, or wether. Ürücomb, from the leg of the animal, was once a very popular dish in Hungary, but the dish, and the word, have since largely fallen out of use.

For related information, see bárány (lamb) and birka (mutton).

    I think”ürü”should read as a castrated RAM…?
