Etymology

Likely from a metathesis of unattested *पिश्ल (piśla), from पेश् (peś), from Proto-Indo-European *peyḱ- (to mark, paint); compare पिंशति (piṃśati, to adorn; to mould, carve out, grind) and Proto-Slavic *pь̀strъ (variegated), as well as Ancient Greek πρικός (prikós) and πῐκρός (pikrós, sharp, pointed), the former being a metathesis of the latter.
