Etymology

Conflation of two roots "to fight" and "to meet", and the merger has been attested since ancient times.

"to fight"
Probably from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *daw (to defy, interfere, be at enmity with), which is the source of Tibetan སྡོ (sdo, to bear up against, bid defiance) and Burmese တော့ (tau., to resent an insinuation, interfere in a quarrel).
"to meet"
Schuessler (2007) considers this cognate with (OC *tjos, “to apply; to be touched; to bring together; to join”); see there for more.
