perə-¹

PIE base ‘to produce, procure’. Possibly related to *perə-² ‘to grant, allot’. See also PIE base *genə- ‘to give birth, bear, beget, produce, generate’, root of nature, kind, etc., and *kʷei- ‘to pile up, build, make’, root of poet and autopoiesis ‘self-creating’.

Other derivatives include parade, parry, emperor, parachute, sever, parent, and puerperal.

Pokorny *per-2 D. ‘to bear (child)’, p. 818.]

separate

We can see the great paradox of the universal spiritual journey from the etymology of separate, which derives from Latin se- ‘apart’ and the PIE base *perə-¹ ‘to produce’, which is the root of Latin parēns ‘parent’ and pārēre ‘to bring forth, produce, give birth; appear, become evident; obey’.
