Etymology 1

[edit]

    No certain cognates outside of Indo-Iranian. Compare Avestan 𐬯𐬌𐬌𐬀𐬰𐬛𐬀𐬝 (siiazdat̰, should move away).[1][2] Possibly inherited from Proto-Indo-European *ḱeys- (to leave behind), with adduced cognates including Ancient Greek κίστη (kístē, box, chest), Latin cūra (care, concern), Lithuanian ki̇̀šti (to push, thrust);[3] however, this is rejected by modern scholarship, particularly the cognacy of the Greek and Latin.
