Sanskrit युक्त (yukta)

Prakrit 𑀚𑀼𑀢𑁆𑀢 (jutta)

Prakrit 𑀚𑁄𑀟𑁂𑀇 (joḍei)

Back-formation from a later retroflexed form of 𑀚𑀼𑀢𑁆𑀢 (jutta, “joined, yoked”), from युक्त (yuktá, “yoked”), from the root युज् (yuj, “to yoke, join”). Per Tedesco, the back-formation is modelled analogically on pairs like 𑀙𑀼𑀝𑁆𑀝 (chuṭṭa, “released”) ~ 𑀙𑁄𑀟𑁂𑀇 (choḍei, “to release”), 𑀢𑀼𑀝𑁆𑀝 (tuṭṭa, “torn”) ~ 𑀢𑁄𑀟𑁂𑀇 (toḍei, “to tear”); see there for more.

Turner reconstructs Sanskrit *योटयति (yoṭayati) as the ancestor of this verb, but there is no evidence for the existence of this root before Middle Indo-Aryan.

Attested Sanskrit यौट् (yauṭ) and जुट् (juṭ) are almost certainly Sanskritizations.
