Etymology

[edit]

From Proto-Indo-Aryan *kriẓḍ-, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *križd-, of uncertain further origin.[1] Mayrhofer traces the root back to a Proto-Indo-European *krisd- (to move about, frolic), and tentatively compares Old Norse hrista (to shake), but this is semantically tenuous.[2][3][1]
