Proto-Balto-Slavic {{m|ine-bsl-pro|*ūdrāˀ}}, Proto-Indo-European {{m|ine-pro|*udreh₂}}, {{m|ine-pro|*udrós||water animal, otter}}; from the same stem as {{term|ūdens|lang=lv}}: {{etyl|ine-pro|lv}} {{m|ine-pro|*wódr̥}}, {{m|ine-pro|*wédōr||water}} (from {{m|ine-pro|*aw(e)-||to moisten}} plus a derivational ''-d'', forming ''*awed'', ''*awd'', ''*ud'', ''*ūd'') , with a suffix ''*-ro''; the original meaning was probably “aquatic animal”, still attested in Sanskrit.
