regulator (rectifier) of borders Explanation: Sometimes in Russian he is "выпрямитель", for which "rectifier" would be nice, but maybe in your case - "regulator". |

| Reference: Mitra - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Reference information: A suggested alternative derivation was *meh "to measure" (Gray 1929). Pokorny (IEW 1959) refined Meillet's *mei as "to bind." Combining the root *mei with the "tool suffix" -tra- "that which [causes] ..." (also found in man-tra-, "that which causes to think"), then literally means "that which binds," and thus "covenant, treaty, agreement, promise, oath" etc. Pokorny's interpretation also supports "to fasten, strengthen", which may be found in Latin moenia "city wall, fortification", and in an antonymic form, Old English (ge)maere "border, boundary-post".
