Proto-Slavic
Etymology 1
From Proto-Balto-Slavic *ab-srawas, *sráwas. Morphologically from Proto-Slavic *o(b) + *strovъ, from Proto-Indo-European *srówos, from *srew- (“to flow, stream”). The literal meaning of the term is “one which gets flowed around” or possibly “flowless” (in case the prefix *o(b)*ob- is applied with abessive function).
Baltic cognates include Lithuanian sravà, prasrava, Latvian strava. With another vocalism: Lithuanian srovė̃, strovė̃, Latvian stràvа, strāvе, East Lithuanian sraujà.
Indo-European cognates include Sanskrit गिरिस्रवा (girisravā), स्रवति (sravati), Ancient Greek ῥόος (rhóos, “stream”), ῥοή (rhoḗ), ῥέω (rhéō), Old Norse straumr (“stream, current, river”).
