Pronunciation[edit]
Etymology 1[edit]
From Proto-Indo-Aryan *śiṣṭás (“left over”), from *śiṣ- (“to remain”), of uncertain origin. Has been compared with Avestan 𐬯𐬌𐬌𐬀𐬰𐬛𐬀𐬝 (siiazdat̰, “will chase away”), itself likely from Proto-Indo-European *ḱyesdʰ- (“to drive away; to go away”) and cognate with the Sanskrit root सिध् (sidh, “to go, drive off”) and Latin cēdō (“to go, proceed”). Compare also Mari šište (“beeswax”), Mordvin šta (“beeswax”), inherited from a Proto-Indo-Aryan borrowing.
