Halych - Name
The name of the city, although spelled identically "Галич" in modern East Slavic languages, is pronounced as Halych in Ukrainian and as Galich in Russian. The Russian transliteration should be distinguished from Galich, Russia. In Polish the name is rendered as Halicz; in Yiddish - as העליטש (Helitsh/Heylitsh); in Latin - as Galic.
The origin of this Slavic toponym is uncertain. Historians formerly believed it was of Celtic origin, relating it to many similar place names found across Europe, such as Galati in Romania, Gaul in France, and Galicia in Spain.[citation needed] Another version postulates "hals", salt to be present in the root of Halych, as salt trage was a significant economical factor in the medieval history of Halych.[citation needed] Max Vasmer and modern Slavists generally agree that the name represents an adjective derived from the East Slavic word for jackdaw, halka. Consequently, this bird is featured in the town's coat of arms.
