Proto-Slavic

Etymology

[edit]

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *starˀgiás. Probably descending from Proto-Indo-European *sterg- (to protect, to shield), akin with Ancient Greek στέργω (stérgō, to love), στοργή (storgḗ, affection). Further comparable with Proto-Indo-European *(s)terg- (to strengthen) whence Proto-Germanic *starkuz (stark).

Compare also Latvian sar̂gs (watchman, guard), Lithuanian sárgas (watchman, guard), Proto-Slavic *sorgъ (strict, watchful).
