Sanskrit

Etymology

From Proto-Indo-Aryan *nadíH, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *nadíH (“river”), perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *ned-ih₂, from *ned- (“thundering, roaring, rushing”) +‎ *-íh₂. Cognate with Younger Avestan 𐬀𐬥𐬀𐬌𐬜𐬍𐬨‎ (anaiδīm, “across a river”). Possibly related to Ancient Greek Νέδα (Néda, “name of a river”), Middle Low German Nette (“name of a river”).
