Etymology

[edit]

Likely borrowed from a Middle Iranian descendant of Proto-Iranian *gr̥šáti, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰers-.[1] An inheritance from the same would have yielded *ձառ- (*jaṙ-) (see ձառ (jaṙ)), hence we are dealing with a borrowing. The Iranian is attested in the meaning "to be glad, happy", but it must have had other, more suitable meanings: compare the cognates Sanskrit हर्षति (harṣati, to be excited; to be delighted; to bristle; to become impatient; to become stiff or rigid), Bangāṇī gɔ̀rs(ɛ)ṇɔ (to feel sheer terror, be terrified), gɔ̀rsiṇɔ (to be bristly, spiny (e.g., as pig or porcupine)), Deogārī gɔrsiɔṇɔ (to get terribly frightened (with body hair standing upright)).[2]
