Etymology

[edit]

Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ḱer- (rope). Cognate with Ancient Greek καῖρος (kaîros), Old Armenian սարդ (sard) and Albanian thur. Given the semantics, the second part of the compound may refer to iron; cf. खरपात्र (kharapātra, iron pot), खरसोनि (kharasoni, iron vessel), खरालिक (kharālika, iron arrow), प्रखर (prakhara, iron armor).
