Proto-Slavic
Etymology
Disputed. Traditionally speculated to be a Gothic borrowing[1], presumably from an unattested *ga- (“co-”) + *razdaz (“sound, melodic”), probably originally meaning “consonant, coherent”. If correct, then akin to Gothic 𐍂𐌰𐌶𐌳𐌰 (razda, “speech”). A problem with this hypothesis is that the expected proto-Slavic reflex of the proposed Germanic term should be **gorozdъ. Stender-Petersen alternatively proposes a native origin from Proto-Indo-European *ger- (“to turn, to grasp, to craft”) + *-azdъ.
