Proto-Slavic

Etymology

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *ar-ei-, from Proto-Indo-European *Hor-eye- a causative/iterative form of *Her-. Cognate with Lithuanian ardýti (to pull down, to destroy), Latvian ā̀rdît (to destroy, to scatter), Lithuanian érdėti (to break up), Latvian ḕrst (to separate, to card (flax), to divide) (1sg. ḕržu, ḕrdu), Lithuanian ìrti (to disintegrate) (1sg. yrù, 1sg. past iraũ). Per Vasmer, also cognate with Sanskrit अर्दति (árdati, to be dissolved), but not cognate with Latin orior (to rise) (infinitive orīri), Ancient Greek ὄρνῡμι (órnūmi, to excite, to move), Sanskrit ऋणोति (ṛṇóti, to rise). Trubachev notes a possible connection to Hittite [script needed] (ḫarra-, to break, to destroy, to grind).
