Abstract

The aim of this article is to demonstrate that the reading ötrü of the postposition which means ‘against’ in the Cun Lord’s Prayer in which it is spelled ⟨utro⟩ is incorrect and should be amended to utru. The postposition ötrü is used in the Turkic languages not in the meaning ‘against’, but ‘because of, following on’. In addition, it may not follow a nominal in the dative as it appears in the Cun Lord’s Prayer, since ötrü requires the ablative. On the contrary, the opposition utru fulfils both requirements.
