Alternative forms
Etymology
Borrowed from a South Slavic language, compare Old Church Slavonic часъ (časŭ, “time, moment, hour”), Serbo-Croatian čas (“time, moment, hour”) and Bulgarian час (čas, “hour, period”). Ultimately from Proto-Slavic *časъ (“time”). The auslaut -t derives from the old locative or prepositional accusative case.[1][2][3]
