Proto-Slavic
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Proto-Balto-Slavic *śokˀāˀ, from Proto-Indo-European *ḱokh₂-. Cognates within Baltic include Latvian sakas pl (“collar”), čaka (“stick”), Lithuanian šakà,[1] šãkė (“branch”). Further related to Gothic 𐌷𐍉𐌷𐌰 (hōha, “plough”), Sanskrit शाखा (śākhā, “branch”). The Slavic *-x- is typically explained as result of spirantization of PIE *-kh₂-. Compare however Russian осо́ка (osóka, “sedge”), possibly from the same root.
Additionally reminiscent of Proto-Germanic *sahsą (“stone, knife”), Latin saxum (“stone”) from Proto-Indo-European *sek- (“to cut”) (whence Proto-Slavic *sěčivo (“edge tool”)).
