Etymology

Somewhat disputed. Probably from the root of *rūgō +‎ -men, attested in ērūgō, rūctō (I belch) and rugiō (I roar, rumble, bray), from Proto-Indo-European *h₁rewg-, *h₁rewǵ- (to belch).[1] Cognate with Ancient Greek ἐρεύγομαι (ereúgomai, I spew out, discharge, belch, bellow), Old Armenian ործամ (orcam, I vomit, am nauseated), Proto-Germanic *reukaną (to smoke, emit vapor) (modern English reek).
Alternatively from Proto-Indo-European *sréwmn̥, from the root *srew- (to flow). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?) See also Rōma and flūmen, which are sometimes hypothesized as from the same source.
A third possibility is a relationship with Etruscan 𐌓𐌖𐌌 (rum, teat). If not coincidental, it may be equally likely that the Etruscan word was borrowed from Latin.
