Etymology 2

[edit]

Uncertain. According to Ałayan, from Proto-Indo-European *gʷērh₂-, from *gʷerh₂- (“heavy”).

The sense of "Passover" is a semantic loan from Ancient Greek πάσχα (páskha, “Passover”), which was mistakenly etymologized from πάσχω (páskhō, “to bear, suffer”). The rest of the senses all developed from the basic meaning "to bear, to carry".
