𐍄𐌰𐌲𐍂

Gothic

Etymology

From Proto-Germanic *tahrą, from Proto-Indo-European *dáḱru-. The h/g alternation (due to Verner's law) in the Proto-Germanic forms has disappeared in Gothic through morphological leveling. Cognates include Latin lacruma, Ancient Greek δάκρυ (dákru), Old English tēar, and Sanskrit अश्रु (aśru).
