Proto-Slavic
Etymology
From Proto-Balto-Slavic *śeśtas, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *sweḱsth₂o- or *suḱsth₂o-. Cognate with Lithuanian šẽštas (“sixth”) Latvian sȩstais (“sixth”), Old Prussian wuschts, usts, uschts (“sixth”), Sanskrit षष्ठ (ṣaṣṭha, “sixth”). Per Derksen, the oldest Balto-Slavic form may have been *uśtas, on the strength of the Old Prussian evidence, with *śeśtas a later development influenced by *śeś (“six”).
