Latin

Etymology
From Proto-Indo-European *gʰast- (“branch”) or *gʰasdʰo- (“spear, sharp spine”). A relationship with Sanskrit हस्त (hasta, “hand”) is uncertain. A relationship with the Albanian words heshtë, ushtë and shtie (all meaning "spear") is uncertain. Cognates include Irish gas (“stem (of a plant)”), Gothic 𐌲𐌰𐌶𐌳𐍃 (gazds, “spine, aculeus”), Old Norse gaddr (“spear, goad”), and English goad; the Germanic forms show that the immediate preform in Western Proto-Indo-European was more likely *gʰasdʰo- (“spear, sharp spine”), but this cannot be connected to gas (“stem (of a plant)”), since Proto-Celtic *sd yields Irish *d, as in nead (“nest”).
