Etymology

Traditionally considered inherited from Proto-Indo-European *dr̥w-, zero-grade from *dóru (“tree”).[1][2][3][4] Spoons were made of wood. Among the cognates compare especially Sanskrit दर्वि (dárvi-, “spoon”).

More likely borrowed from Anatolian, from the same Proto-Indo-European root: compare Luwian [script needed] (taruu̯al-, “mortar”), Hittite [script needed] (taru̯āli-, “an implement used for grinding or crushing, probably pestle”).[5][6]
