I don't doubt what you are saying. You are saying it in the 21st century about 21st century horses in a 21st century language in a nation state that did not exist a few centuries ago and had no horses a few centuries before that.
I am referring to ancient words spoken in the old world by people long long long ago, which is why I referenced Etymology Online.
roan ~ roar(inner flesh color) ~ yawn(inner flesh color) ~ oral ~ oro(Spanish) gold-aura
Oroan (India, probable Abram's maternal lineage) ~ ochre/ore + roan ~ Ukraine/Euxine/Ughuir-Aynu
