perekh

Perekh is a transliteration that may refer to several linguistic and onomastic uses derived from the Cyrillic root перех- found in Russian, Ukrainian, and related languages. The most common underlying meaning relates to crossing, passage, or transition, as in the word переход (translit. perekhod) meaning crossing or transition. The root conveys the sense of moving from one side to another and is used in a range of contexts, including physical crossings and abstract changes.

In transliteration and onomastics, "Perekh" can appear as a representation of a fragment of longer words or as a proper noun in certain communities with Slavic linguistic heritage. It may be encountered in historical documents, personal names, or as part of longer place-name components that describe a crossing point, pass, or junction. However, as a standalone term in major languages, Perekh is not a standard or widely used word.

In English-language usage, Perekh is not widely attested as a common term. When it appears, it is typically a transliterated fragment or a proper noun tied to a specific context, such as a family name or a referenced local or historical name. There are no widely recognized works, persons, or places universally identified simply as "Perekh."
