боярин

• боя́ринъ (bojárin) — Pre-reform orthography (1918)

Inherited from Old East Slavic боꙗринъ (bojarinŭ), from Old Church Slavonic болꙗринъ (boljarinŭ), from Bulgar, attested in Greek variously as βωυλε, βοιλας, βοηλας, βουληα, βοιλᾶς, βολιᾶς. The form with -j- might have come from contamination with Old East Slavic бои (boi).
