From the Iranian - Slavonic Lexical Relations: ÕÎÐÎØÈÉ

The etymology of the word õîðîøèé (good) which was proposed by S. P. Obnorskij must be admitted as the most convincing. It can be confirmed by the system which can be conditionally named " light" - dictionary. The links of this system illustrate the definite evolution of language lexical relations: positive characteristics (ethical and aesthetical) were formed on the base of an idea of light.
